I can do those dates. Be good to see everyone again. It'll have to be the Lynskey though as the Lemond is set up for the rollers these days.

Unless the forecast says it is going to be a brutal day like today!

Haven't been out on the 2 wheeler in ages. Been commuting on the trike, since it got motorised.

The time to/from work hasn't changed much but the effort required certainly has!

Looks good Minh. With the forecast rain of the next day or two the bottom of the M7 might be closed due to flooding but we can skip round using Camden Valley Way and Cowpasture easily enough.

Might to you, sounds like a bloody early morning to me!

Any chance of 8am? I have elderly parent responsibilities, leaving at 6:30 is tricky

I can do a late start, if I get twitchy I can always go out somewhere first.

Yep, 8 am is fine - I need to get out of the house to avoid waking my son on exit, so will take the long way there

The various distances were between 54 and 107kms so it was a fairly decent run.
