[Sep 8, 2013] 8th Sep - Ride to Elsted (BN6 8TT)

Doing a little more exploring on a few roads I haven't been on.
Weather is supposed to be better than today...rainfall expected 0.01 inches...

As the title implied its a Westbound trip, stop off at Three Horse Shoes for lunch/drink, overlooking the downs and back.

Start point Ditchling Village Hall carpark. Or you can gather further east and wind you way as a group to Ditchling.

Time : 1045 for a 11am set off.
Ride Duration : about 2 hrs each way from Ditchling.


PS. No Manbag shopping...or Ladybag for that matter...

 

I see a map of the USA, might take a tad longer to get there than 2 hours each way

As long as it's not chucking it down I will see you in the morning.

 

Well I was hoping to get a man bag tomorrow but I suppose it will wait! Please lets not spend too much time on the A272 its a hateful road full of caravans.
I'll see you in the morning.

 

Nope...not going on the A272 at all...well possibly for about 1 mile...

 

Will make a decision in the morning, want to go, but it is quite late, and depending on Ruth as to when I need to be home.

 

Thats music to ears, well more likely the sound of your exhaust!

 

May join you on this, if I get up early enough.

 

Won,t make this now. Seeing daughter instead.

 

Hoppie, Sorry I as well not be able to make it, tbh mostly due to the weather on that side, partly on time, but looks quite bad at times in places. catch you later soon I hope.

 

Obviously you have the wrong start time, start place, route, destination and day of the week. However, I'll suffer in silence and join you

 

Current weather update, the rain as cleared Ditchling n looks like its heading East North East. 30-40% Blue Sky, clear to the West Rain was heavy this morning, so roads are still damp.

 

Should be mostly dry with the odd bit of drizzle.

 

Heavy rain in Heathfield, I'm out, maybe next time.

 

Shud clear as you go West dulux

 

Yep it has brightened up, but wife has had to go back to Horse with suspected colic and need to get my daughter off to sleep, so its unfolding into one of those days!
Hope you guys have a good ride, I may get out for a run out later once everything calms down.

 

Loverly jubblery here in the East, oft to Whistabubble and it's getting hot. Cuppa and piece of bread puddin. Then a spin over to the Capel le Ferne cafe for a bit of French coast watch.
Oft to Spain tomorrow, She who must be obeyed has won, (Warthog did warn me) it's the cage! Says 1800 miles is too much in September? Bet there are a few more shoes gone in the case this morning.

Calais in the very early am, to Chartres, Angouleme, Biarittz, Santander, then self cater hotel in Potes, Picos Europa. Yeah walking vacs, for 2 weeks in the National park. Will bring you all back a stick of rock.
See all soon.

 

Have a good one pat.
