Typical. You wait for one ferry and two come along at once... Welcome to
The London Orbital 300km.
It's a 300km ride round London Town, but you'll be far from Madding Crowd, taking in the sexy country shires of the South East complete with a ferry ride across the Thames. What Larks!
The event will run from Chalfont St Peter Community Centre with our traditional 'no-mod-cons' accomodation offer for Friday and Saturday night. The entry fee includes light snacks at the start and finish in Chalfont (Breakfast and Supper!), the Thames Ferry and a Village Hall Control at Leaden Roding in Essex with Cafe Controls at Cranleigh (SW, Surrey), Hildenborough (SE, Kent), Gravesend and Chiswell (N, Hertfordshire).
We are currently set to use the public Gravesend-Tilbury Ferry which rather limits the number of riders, however we are investigating options to provide additional spaces by running the event in both directions simultaneously or even hiring a ferry for the event. More news on this later!
If you live within striking distance of the controls at Cranleigh (SW/Surrey), Hildenborough (SE/Kent), Gravesend (E) or Leaden Roding (NE/Essex) and would like to support the event as a Controller we would be very pleased to have you aboard, even if only for a couple of hours. Please PM for details.
