Hi guys,
I've been keeping the details here:
http://www.t3v.veggroup.org/events/1079.html
It might be good if you are interested to PM me your email address so I can be sure to pass on to pass on relevant details.
What I need to know:
If you are coming (and I'll send your direction and contact details), what nights you will need accommodation for, and if you are in a couple at the event (so I can allocate suitable sleeping spaces) and if you need to hire a bike or other stuff.
The mud levels in the Chilterns are in flux. Because of the wet summer it muddier than it should be, (but it dries out quickly if the sun shines), so I'm keeping the route under review as the mud can halve speeds. But I think mud tyres will be most fitting. What ever the route there will be many opportunities to cut short on roads if time runs low. I aim the ride to be at a moderate pace which will be dictated by the slowest riders.
Initially, the Saturday meal was to be at a local vegan friendly pub, but they've got a booking from a 150 motor bikers, so we been gently declined. No big deal, and this removes the need to have lights for the return trip, so we will slap something together at our place - there's plenty of room.
