I'm going to be a very wet and cold fair weather cyclist
Quite true, but hey, what's the worst that can happen?
Right folks, here's a plan which you can either join in with or amend.
Huggy and I have conversed via BlackBerry Messenger and decided the target pub could be The Bricklayer's Arms on Colchester's Bergholt Road. I've never been but have always wanted to. It's where the Colchester Cycling Campaign chaps hold all their meetings which is how I know about it. There are lots of opportunities to use various bits of NCN 1 and Colchester's cycling infrastructure between our patch and Colchester but since I have just spent ages cleaning all my bikes I don't want to get them muddy quite so quickly. Yeah, I know, I'm just being a fairy
On the way back, which hopefully be wind assisted, I was planning to use the A12 cycle path which I have done on several occasions and quite like, mainly cos its so different from our usual roads.
I'm not sure what time we're leaving Witham but I wouldn't mind it being fairly early as I don't want to be late back.
Thoughts?
