21/6- Friday Chaingang

Only three met for this weeks Friday chaingang, Simon “wobbly” Grogan, Steve “long distance” Butcher and myself.
Three Men
Knackered Wobbly
It was a typically British summers evening, cold, misty and damp at the Fairlight meeting point where the three of us gathered. We set of at just after 7.30 and headed down battery hill out of the gloom and cold taking it steady as the roads were a little damp. With a brisk westerly Steve “long distance” and I jumped on the gas for the levels dash and left Simon “wobbly” behind a bit but we joined up again at the gate where “wobbly” got a move on and dropped me and “long distance” on the way to Rye.
We decided to stay together for a while on the Rye - Broad oak  section which was back into the wind and we all took our turn on the front. With a couple of miles to go “Wobbly” eased of and “Long distance” and I pushed for Broad Oak at a decent pace considering the wind.
Steve “long distance” left us at Brede and so we were down to two for the final leg to Stonestile.
We both managed to make a decent job of this poxy hill!
We Love It
This again was a great little ride and it would be even better if we could get more to come along so we will look forward to seeing loads of you next week! Friday 19.30 fairlight (depart at 7;35 prompt)
