Word Up MO-FO's

Its been dry, its staying dry, there's only one thing for it! ..................................EPPING!

So there is a group of brentwood lads going already, but if there's a a few from here we'll do a seperate group.
I'm sure between Me and Jamie we'll be able to to do the "Bacon Roll Run" on our own.

Its quite a lengthy but fun ride, bring plenty of water as its going to be warm and the way back can be crampalicious :crazy:

So who's in?

Never ridden Epping Forest so would love to consider this if you don't mind someone new to the group. I moved to the area in July from Colorado but just found this forum.

What is the length/time duration of the ride?

Meeting at High beech for 9:30, (see home page for directions) its about 1-2hrs to Mecca (bacon roll cabin) and then about the same maybe a little longer back. will aim to be away by 13:30 latest.

PS

All welcome, only stipulation is, if your going to fall off make sure you do it in front of someone with a camera.

And now undoubtedly something will happen that I'll wish I had pads....! Not sure who I'm looking for but I'll be driving a silver/grey Ford 4-door car, FS Gary Fisher SuperFly 100, will try to wear something Colorado related to make it easy.
