Five of us rode out via Telham and Powdermill and on to the East Sussex CA Hard Riders course at the Ashburnham turn. Up Agony Hill (it is not that bad!) to Woods Corner then along the main road to Three Cups to turn to Rushlake Green and then to the finish/HQ/start area at Bodle Street Green. Two cut off early to get home so I took the opportunity to try some "in-fill lanes" that I have never ridden before (in my 27 years in the area) - those little side lanes that we always go past. We ended back at Cowbeech then Herstmonceux and on to Wartling when we cut off down Horse Walk (amazingly Steve C had never used it) to Hooe then Sidley. Tony was going out for lunch, Steve and I had a leisurely bite in St Leonards.
Saturday 26 February: No planned bacon butty or early bird rides. Sort something out between yourselves!
Sunday 27 February: Neither Steve Curtis nor Chris Parker (in a team of 5 H&StL CC riding the SCA Hard Riders, which includes a former TdeF Yellow Jersey in the field) are available to lead a ride but why not meet 9.00am at the Harrow and pal up with someone for a ride to depart by 9.10am, or ride solo if no one else suitable turns up.
