Oros, nice try with the BRT link but it unfortunately only takes you to the webpage and not the link to your route.  You need to save your route with public access (i.e. not private) and a URL to the route will appear in the Summary box under the course name, something like this: http://bikeroutetoaster.com/BRTWebUI/Course/734816, that's the link we need to be able to download directly from BRT  :thumbsup:
It is about time we revisited The Chequers I think, I created my linked route over three years ago  :o

(p.s. not exactly Tomsk (or Del) friendly, is it a book club night??!)

I'll probably be ok for Goldhanger on Wednesday, but I'll take a fairly direct route there through H. Peverel and then head back with you via Witham. It will be a late night.....

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls ...

We have a dedicated thread for this year's Christmas Do.  Actually, it's next year but don't let that worry you.

I need to order some B&M lights from Rose Bikes in Germany.  I've done some research and Rose are a bit cheaper than Star even though Star ship to the UK for free.

Does anyone want anything?  If the order exceeds £150 shipping costs fall from £7.60 to £5.05 which we can share.

Gents I am out on Wednesday, looks like it will probably be a nice wet ride! OD I will take a little look at the Rose website as there may well be some items I would like to order.
I will get back to you asap once I have had a peek

I think Del can testify that we can always find our way to the pub, just not always the same one as everyone else is in  ::-)

It's only water. Rule 5. My Garmin has a man overboard function. What's the worst that can happen?
