Not completely sure mate, I would have thought about 2hrs, possibly a bit more depending on how everyone feels. We can easily loop you back if you for any reason decide not to carry on.

I would have normally mate and taken up your lights offer again, but been quite a physical week for me and didnt want to run the risk of popping that calf muscle again like last time !!

Looks like you'll have an excellent ride and I'm looking forward to riding Epping at the weekend. Be good to post up a conditions report if you have the time. Cheers Jon

No worries man we will do a conditions report for sure.

7.30 high beech sounds good - parking in the kings oak is usually the bbest idea on a night ride as its a bit better lit than over by the tea hut

6.45 suits mate if we can start form Nursery lane? as that saves me 15 mins pedalling up the road to High Beech.
