This morning I rode out to Lewes Wanderers' "Circuit of Danehill" event. With a scenic ride back home over the Ashdown Forest this gave a quality 4 hours in the saddle.
The time trial goes from Chelwood Gate, down to Newick, across to Maresfield, up to Wych Cross and back to Chelwood Gate:

Pete Morris (ASL 360) put in a stonking course record time of 42:07. I was waaaay behind with 45:45, but good enough for 2nd overall.
4 hours riding, a quality threshold effort, tea & cake in a village hall, supporting other local clubs' events, sunshine, riding through woods full of bluebells, and home for lunch. What's not to like? I suggest you try it.
