What is the speed going to be like??
Want to do it with skates, but you know my speed. Razz

Any car going by Kilburn??
Maybe I can meet up with Ed in Edgware Road, and hitch a ride.

I can only take skaters in my car...

PLUS ED must skate!!!

What do you mean?  My bike fitted into your car, albeit space with no spac for back seat passengers, but that doesn't matter Smile

Seriously, perhaps it does sound like the easiest option...ok, I'll skate too.

Based on what Xia mentioned earlier:
- Meeting somewhere in Midhurst around 9:30am (1.5 hour journey from London leaving before 8am), maybe starting at 10am?
- 50-60km distance
- Average of around 15km/h
- Lunch break of about an hour

I do have plans later in the day, so would it be safe to assume that we'd finish skating / cycling anytime between 3-4pm, therefore back in london around 5-6pm?

I've decided against going on the basis that I need to be back in London around lunchtime / early part of the afternoon.

Have fun though, and I look forward to the Andy, Tanya, Sol, Riz(?) & Hans(?) bike race report.

George, I* might join you for as long as my brain doesn't get bored (2 laps?) - what time were you thinking of going?

* Matt and Glenn too, maybe.

Yes, I was very keen, but sounds like it's a bike rather than skate session.

If hardly anyone is skating then as I may not get much of a chance to skate in Feb (will be in Oz), may look for somebody to skate with closer to home.

Sorry to cancel that late, but with so few of us, I'm canceling for tomorrow. I hope you will all get the message in time.

Will keep the route for another day.

Actually, thought there was quite a bit of interest, just not from people wanting to skate which is the only reason why I pulled out.

Anyway, I'm going to keep George company, Ed and Matt B are joining. Hyde Park at 10.00. Anyone else? It's George's session - so will just be doing his programme.
