I am probably aiming to go via the Spiritual Home for a cheeky beer and something to eat - 7.45ish arrival to leave there in time for a circle round to the OT for 9 or a bit earlier.

I'm not out tonight - no good excuse as just a mountain of work to do...

I am planning to be at the Spa Roundabout tonight, but we may have a lack of elders to follow :o

so I found OD's last recommended route to the Orange Tree https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28913513 which appears to be "one way" to allow for a train assist or via Boss Hogs journey home depending on your preference.

Thinking about doing a 200k on Saturday if anyone is about?

A few of us are doing the Horsepower helpers ride on Saturday, starting and finishing in Dunmow with a 7:30am start.

Would you mind if I tagged along? I’m afraid I can’t help next Saturday as I’m away... Is that ok Tomsk?

 :thumbsup: Think there may be 7 of us now!

See you all Saturday at 7:30 somewhere in Dunmow. Where are we meeting?

Happy Monday people, hope you're all well.  This Wednesday evening...

The Witham Woolie is on the agenda and gets a few votes, most notably Jem.  I'm keen too and TCMR might wander along as well.  Any contrary thoughts?

Assuming there aren't do the Witham peloton want a route or should we just follow our noses?

Discussed with BFC over a beer on Sat - potentially busy with Darts plus would be nice if someone could confirm the side gate open for bike storage??

I've only been to Wollie once with Grant so a reccy would be good if you don't mind? We survived Darts in The 'dev in Chelmsford but that is twice the size I remember of the Woolie...  ???

I was thinking yesterday we should stick Pleshey back in as a bit of a tribute to KF, I noticed on the local tractor news that they have 3 pumps of Wibblers so might make it worthwhile

When are you thinking of Pleshey? I’m not around tomorrow, but could make next Wednesday. Currently we have Maldon down for 13th, but I think that is when the Bard of the Island cannot attend.

Not tomorrow, that's Witham.
We should stick with Maldon Maltsters else the earth rotation might wobble... ?!?!

20th (Walnut Tree) & 27th (Blackmore) are options for replacing with Pleshey.... suggest we could do 20th perhaps?

I thought he pulled out of the LB a couple of years ago?

Yep he did, it was more on a theme and we've not been there since I've been riding ...

All good at The Woolpack. Bike parking out the back and no darts. Might be worth bringing decent locks though, this is Witham after all!
