The forecast was right. Saturday was the day for a long ride. Tony K and I did most of the East Sussex Hard Riders course but we had punctures (me on a different bike that had punctures Saturday) so we were quite happy to cut the ride short in the intermittent wet since Tony had no spare tubes with him and we had no spares left.
Simon T was at the meet but being a lot stronger than Tony and me I suggested he went off with the 6 or so Bayeux tops. There was talk of Crowborough and Ashdown Forest but Simon was glad when they settled for the bikers cafe at Horam and a quick return back. I introduced him to Peter Fox who is a hard man when it comes to Audax but he was not free to join Simon in the 200km on Wednesday week, based at Ashford.
Saturday 19 February: No planned bacon butty or early bird rides. Sort something out between yourselves!
Sunday 20 February: Meet 9.00am at the Harrow to depart by 9.10am and ride round most of the Hard Riders course to familiarise everyone with the gradients.
