The Sussexy Beast 160, Down to Downs 100 and Surrey Hills 50 (latter not GdS) will live on under the care of two new organisers. Should appear in the listings when we tick over into the new season. Jon Walters and Werner Wiethege are the men with the Right Stuff.
These are good rides, which I am glad to have created, and on which one can build AAA RRTY and the like. Down to Downs in particular is a good winter route (with the usual caveats). And the Surrey Hills is a nice way to dip your toe in the water of hilly rides. The Sussexy Beast allows you to step up to longer distances (it is, as the title suggests, a bit of a beasting in the Sussex area).
If anyone has a card for any of the above events, not yet ridden but with an intention to do so "at some point", then please let me know so I can describe how to take this forward.
