Shouldn't be - there will be some but it's a fairly flat ride that is mainly on gravel paths...

Now I've said that it'll be a quagmire!

Lol well i still think my main issue will be staying awake and then followed closely by can i even make it all that way round lol

and then tomorrow may be an issue too lol

Theres also parking in Sainburys and the pub/hotel both next door to the gym

Sorry lads i think im going to have to back out now im literally sitting here falling sleep so think it might be best to just have early night as u again at 4 tomorrow again and not sure what time ill be finished and home by time we finish and that.
its shame because i really wanted to come on this ride was looking forward to it even went out and bought my lights i dont get to us enow
hope i can join you on it soon

feel a bit of an idiot now aswell because been on about it and asking all these questions and that and last min i back out

No worries - Next Wed I'll be doing it again

I prob won't be able to go till week after next week I'm in 2-10

Lovely evening for a ride. Good to meet you guys that left from Thurrock, would of joined you but already been out for an hour and its along trek from Thurrock back to Upminster. if this is going to be regular then ill havr to meet you down at Thurrock with the car.

Anyone considering the farm track between Cely Woods and the road alongside the Jewish Cemetary would be advised to avoid it. Its fairly firm to start but the last half is a quagmire, difficult to determine in the dark untill you plough through it.
Had to give the drive chain a good clear out afterwards.

Yeah good to see you earlier....

Well... A 20.8mile night ride is just what the doctor ordered after a term out the saddle. Enjoyed that gents, and will have to be done again

Good ride - loved the factoids...

Nick the factosoarous !!
cheers dave, cracking ride!

How long did it yak you guys in the end?
Good to hear you all enjoyed it hopefully ill come soon would have come last night but was too tired and glad I didn't I struggled to get up as it is lol

Left gym just after 7 and got back just before 10... but we were taking a very leisurely ride round!

Oh, and Nick & Ian need to post links for their lights... when I was in front of either one of them I might as well have turned mine off...

Yea so it prob best I didn't go was asleep by half 9 lol

I hope my lights will be good enough I got a set of cat eye ones from Evans cycles £19.99

All the details are right here

They'll work but I have to be honest and say that Ian & Nicks lights left me far behind!
