Ride out on Sunday 8 May 2011 "Blue bells and little lambs"

[woodsie]

Anyone who's interested

Ride out from junction 5 M20 and across to Walmer them up North towards Reculver and along to Whitstable.

The route is tried and tested - rode it (again) this morning. I used it in 2008 when we included a look around Walmer Castle. Lots of primroses and some lambs to see today so in a months time it wil be blue bells and lots more lambs!

Some sections through narrow lanes but this route is more free running that the last one.

Plan is 09.00 start at Maidstone.

11.00ish Walmer for coffee break

12.00 ish on to Whitstable

13.15ish at Whitstable for some lunch and a walk about

Make our own way home from there

Quite a short route - just over 80 mile and another 30 to complete the loop back to Maidstone.

Riding in a group using the drop off system.

Volunteer required for tail end Charlie please

I will have to pass on this as I have used up too many brownie points within a short space of time (Ride of Respect, Easter charity ride and Kent camp ride out).

Hope you all have a great day.

Hi Woodsie,

Remember - I have a bladder capacity of about 2 hours!

Hi Woodsie,

Jen and I would like to join you on this one so count us in please!

Remember - I have a bladder capacity of about 2 hours!

09.00 start at Maidstone.

11.00ish Walmer for coffee break

Times between Maidstone and Walmer should just about make adequate allowance for your old age

As it happens when we get to the coast at Walmer there is a khazi directly opposite where we arrive.

12.00 ish on to Whitstable

13.15ish at Whitstable for some lunch and a walk about

That should be OK as well - as long as you don't have too much coffee or just have a glass of water before the second leg.

Responsibility for the journey home is down to you.

You could buy a Touratech potty for your one of panniers in case of emergency
