Hi Guys,

Have been out of action for weeks and weeks and weeks but am hopefully back on it now...

So tomorrow night I'll be doing the weekly night ride again on the Thurrock loop.

It's very dry now and so getting faster and faster - though it will still suit any and all that want to give it a go.

It's 23 or so miles from Bannatynes gym on Chafford Hundred, through Ockendon/Belhus/Hornchurch/Rainham/Purfleet/Little Thurrock and then back to the gym.

We leave at 19:30 and are normally back by 21:30.

Lights are still needed!

Here is a recent gpx of the route: http://app.strava.com/activities/46452544

Address for the gym is:

Bannatyne's Health Club
Howard Road
Chafford Hundred
Essex
RM16 6YJ

I've not been riding for a few weeks so I'll need both my lungs...

I'll put a spare light in the bag - see you tomorrow.

Frickin' awesome ride tonight - loads of oldies and some new faces... 11 of us in total.

My favorite comment "I could hear you coming from 2 miles away..."
