New Years Day - Get the year started

[Phil H]

Steady and Scenic. Probably about 60 miles, the odd hill. 10:00 CSS.

[Amy]

Think I'll be out for this one too.

[Matt W]

I think I might come out for this ride

[Phil H]

Forecast is currently at "Sunny" for this. So I should probably work out a route.

[Steve Clancey]

What sort of pace would it be? I'd love to come along.

[andy r]

me too,dry and sunny fingers crossed

[Steve Clancey]

Lovely, all things being equal see you tomorrow. Happy New Year !

[Phil H]

I should probably mention that it's likely that many cafes will be shut. So probably worth bringing some nibbles. We'll try to find somewhere though.

[Amy]

Box Hill cafe is definitely open - only closes on Christmas Day, I believe.

[Bridget]

Ooh, a magical mystery tour I'll be there!

[Amy]

Perfectly good ride today with Phil - a good start to the year. A slight error of navigation meant we missed the Leith Hill climb but probably for the best - a few more hills before we tackle that one. Refreshment stop at the Parrot, Forest Green, was OK but I'd've still preferred sitting inside next to the fire

Am thinking of doing a similarly 'easy'-paced ride next Sunday out Ripley/Cobham way - got a couple of hills

[Amy]

Forgot the tree down in Raikes Lane - helped provide proof that I was on the heaviest bike and therefore getting more of a workout from the ride

[Phil H]

I can see from the Garmin data where we went wrong out of Forest Green. Shame in a way - the road along the top of Leith to Coldharbour is lovely when it's sunny. Nicer than the A25 anyway.

Hope everyone got back. Also a new PB: started off with 10 and nobody got back to Nonnas.
