So ... Hurdlemakers, Woodham Mortimer or Cross Keys White Notley? Somewhere a bit further west would be more Nick/Owen friendly - Viper, Mill Green or Rose and Crown, Gt Waltham?

A vote for the Viper as I haven't been there since it reopened...

I won't be out because I'll be getting back late from That London.

Viper then? Any takers? I won't be out early, wherever we go, so 21:00 arrival, probably.

That sounds good to me, Tomsk!

See you there

To the Viper, excellent! And I've got an easy day tomorrow, just a bit of art-therapy volunteering at Redbond Lodge (old folks home) in the morning, for someone I know who works there.

Nick · « **Reply #19558 on:** 21 September, 2023, 06:05:41 pm »

Should be early, about 1830!

I may drive or I may not come - feeling a little useless!

Sorry you didn't feel up to it - you missed an epic wet and lightning-illuminated ride! If you'd driven to the Viper, you wouldn't have been the only hardened long-distance cyclist who did ...

The place was fairly busy, a third to half full maybe - pretty good considering the weather.

I’m hoping to be out

Nick · « **Reply #19564 on:** 26 September, 2023, 08:45:10 pm »

Hmmm, not sure as it'll be getting quite gusty on the return home (30 mph). Don't fancy that really. Will see what my imaginary brother is doing...

Nick · « **Reply #19565 on:** 26 September, 2023, 08:54:56 pm »

Wife has made an executive decision. We're out for a meal.

GavinC · « **Reply #19566 on:** 27 September, 2023, 07:00:02 pm »

A few km from home and my bottom bracket/crank has started making some very alarming creaking noises

I did think to just turn my music up and carry on to the Compasses, but on balance I think I’m better off going home and investigating indoors with a cuppa. See you next time.

Tomsk · « **Reply #19567 on:** 02 October, 2023, 07:50:02 pm »

Who is out on Wednesday? A reasonable weather forecast!

I've a busy day on Thursday so perhaps a western venue for me? Any others about that way?

Nick · « **Reply #19568 on:** 02 October, 2023, 08:05:03 pm »

Ah, tested positive for Covid this evening so not out.

jiberjaber · « **Reply #19569 on:** 02 October, 2023, 08:20:01 pm »

I'm possibly out for a beer on Wednesday

GavinC · « **Reply #19570 on:** 02 October, 2023, 08:23:52 pm »

MrsC is working a night shift on Wednesday, so I won’t be out unfortunately.

psyclist · « **Reply #19571 on:** 02 October, 2023, 08:28:37 pm »

I’m unlikely to be out due to an injury picked up yesterday

Snotty Gilbert · « **Reply #19572 on:** 02 October, 2023, 08:37:03 pm »

I hope to be out on Wednesday - and being Mid Essex - happy to travel anywhere (within reason and physically possible)

huggy · « **Reply #19573 on:** 02 October, 2023, 10:00:55 pm »

I’m most likely not out on account of cultivating a first experience of shingles and discovering that it’s a little uncomfortable.

Hoping for an Eastern friendly venue...
