A Saturday in Kent

I have something so rare, I can't remember the last time I possessed one, a Saturday morning pass.

So please join me for a 50 mile ride in Kent. I'll plot a route later but it will likely feature Brasted Chart and Ide Hill.

@andyp if its cool with you I'm moving this into the Casual Ride thread.

Fila, Adidas, Stone Island, that kind of thing?

No problem with moving it, wasn't sure where the right place to post it was.

If it isn't raining (I'm too old and unfit for any of that crap), and you don't mind a slowcoach coming along, I'll be at Cadence for 8:30am. I won't do the whole route though, I'd peel off at an appropriate place for am amble back home.

You are very welcome @Sam

Seeing if I can sneak away on this one, the kids both have parties to attend, which is convenient. But I think Emma has earmarked it for herself already.

Is anyone considering the LFGSS 10th Birthday celebrations later that day?

No

I did. But then I thought no.

No. No one would know who I was, despite being original member number three hundred and something.

I appear to have a shared Filofax fail. The missus had a hair appointment in the diary for 2pm, but apparently she changed it "ages ago" but didn't update on my phone. Sorry Andy.

Hair appointments, the bane of my life.

You have my sympathies.

I only found out recently that they always knock a zero off the end when they tell you how much it costs.

Women I mean, not hairdressers.

Are we still on for this? Anybody else?

Yes, still good. Think I'll struggle to make 0830 though, so do you want to make it 0900?

9 is good for me too. You will have to wait for me at the top of hills...

I am up for it too.

I may be a bit slow. I have a stiff hip after getting skittled by a car last week. If I struggle I may have to bail out mid-route.

You always say that. Let's see.

We'll look after you. Plenty of bailing options if needed though.

Cheers Andy.

In

Thanks for a great ride guys. Dat wind though...

Thanks guys. Enjoyed it.

I also have tan lines on my legs and arms.

Result!

It was nice to shout at Andy as we crossed paths this morning. Alex and the other two saw you going up the hill.
"That jersey's too big for him"

It's a gilet, but, yes it is too big for me.

I'd just seen some other Park Runners when I saw you, didn't expect to see you (still don't have you down as a runner) so apologies for my tardiness in recognising you.
