With all these new road bikes on the forum I reckon we should have a Fiat Coupe bicycle jaunt at some point. I did a 54 mile route that followed the Olympic road race route quite closely (only once up Boxhill, avoided A25, skipped section north of Richmond Park) but I would be keen to go up there again before all the speed bumps are put back, and also I'd like to go up Leith Hill, anyone up for an fccuk-organised ride on a weekend, rather than an externally organised one? Picking up on the above, register interest/ideas on here. DaveG, I took in Leith Hill (and Box Hill) early last Saturday. Stunning day for it. Would definitely be up for this. NB I would suggest the point is doing it together as a group and taking in at least one pub on the way and perhaps ending up at one too!

Very interested ... but too far for me A great place to cycle That area used to be one of my regular rides when I lived in Wimbledon. In fact, my Pinarello (15 years old now, but still going strong) comes from Dauphin Cycles at the top of Box Hill!

I 'could' be up for that, about time I dusted off the old Rockhopper but would an unfit old bugger be up to it?

I think we'd probably need to arrange several, each covering a different region, depending on interest?

How about this route then? http://www.mapometer.com/cycling/route_2218793.html I copied it from Cycling Plus magazine, summer special, and it's also on http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/surrey-sw, but I think mapometer is much better since you can Show Altitude (click on button bottom left, might need to refresh to get full distance profile), export as GPX etc. The route is just over 45 miles and there are 6 climbs: up to Ranmore Common, Coldharbour Lane, Leith Hill, Barhatch Road, Whitedowns Lane, and finishing with just one circuit of Boxhill up Zig Zag Lane. Cycling Plus classify it as "hard" and reading the description of the ride, I'm not too sure I want to do it now! Oh, and as for "show us your ride"...

Thanks Dave, I think!
It's a good route. Personally, I'd suggest omitting the A24 and turning heading off Lodgebottom Rd and Headley Lane (prettier and a fun descent)
It's just down the road from me, so if anyone wants to do that I'd be happy to join. But I wonder if it is worth doing something a bit less hard core?

Barhatch lane is a killer. 21% incline and seemingly never ending. Makes box hill feel flat.

Excellent, that's what I wanted to see, people in favour of a more moderate ride, phew! Still featuring Boxhil right at the start (to get it over and done with), this route takes in a lot of the Olympic route but avoids the A25, and whilst the northern loop could be omitted, it includes Richmond park which is lovely to cycle through (although cycling through Kingstom is not so much fun, and the direct route down to Richmond bridge is one way - the wrong way)

I'm up for that.
Another vote for early morning. Saturday (preference) or Sunday and setting off no later than 7am. It makes a big difference.
How about asking for a notional fiver or so from everyone to go to the teenage cancer trust?
I would also suggest setting a date sooner, whilst we have more daylight.

7am? I did it in July starting at 9:30am with 3 other people, one of whom had a mountain bike and struggled on hills (and the flats too, TBH) so we didn't finish until 4pm and averaged only 9mph for the 6 hours of cycling, but I did record a max speed via GPS of 136.9mph (somebody suggested that might be wrong?) I'd like to do it at least 50% faster this time (13.5mph average) or are you guys all 15-20mph average?

I am interested in this. I am still overweight so constant hill climbing would not be my ideal and for those lighter but less fit it would also make for a tough ride. There is however a very good ride I do on occasion around the box hill area. It starts in Cobham, which is easy to get to (just off the A3) and has plenty of parking. The ride would be about 50 miles and goes over the downs twice. It does not go up Box hill for two reasons, it is crowded and once they put the speed bumps back on the road it is not much fun either. It does have the option 2/3rds of the way into the ride to add Leith Hill and the decision can be made at that point based on the weather and the group consensus. There is a patch of riding on the A25 for 4-5 miles but the road is wide and good. I would work on a 15mph riding time plus 45 mins for a stop. So 4hrs total. Leaving at 8am should see a mid day finish in time for lunch

Ignore the bit from Chertsey to Cobham. Why? Surely we are all going to start (and more importantly finish) at your place! That looks like a nice ride, not too hilly and under 50 miles, hope I've mapped it right I don't know Cobham too well so started/finished at Sainsbury's. Also noticed that mapometer has no respect for one way streets (after Newlands Corner where we cross the A246)

No worries, just use what you have. I have a spare road bike if anyone needs one, it's not glamorous but it's seen me through plenty of miles.

Dave & I tried this one today with a small detour through Box Hill. They are special roads and views round Surrey and plenty of other cyclists to steal a tow from. Most of the roads weren't busy and I think it was worth the effort to travel down and try out Surrey's roads. The course felt relatively flat with a few hills. Something like 48 miles round trip. We started around 8:30 and were done around 12:30 with a stop or 2 along the way. Public car park was free on a Sunday or Pay and Display on other days. Box Hill felt really special. Beautifully smooth tarmac and a Cafe/ Visitor's centre at the top. Luckily Dave knows Surrey because I don't and wouldn't have been able to follow the course with the few IT oddments that I own.

Here's the route as cycled: http://www.mapometer.com/cycling/route_2229469.html a bit longer at 47.77 miles which we did from start to finish in just over 4 hours, including stops. Not sure if the GPS was exactly right on our moving time, the bike computer recorded 14.8 mpg average but the wheel size setting was not quite right, I think 14.6 mph was more like it. Max speed was 44.3 mph down Pebble Hill. Who's up for a repeat on the 25th?

Okay, I might be up for this!
But one odd but important question. Is Cobham in the low emission zone?
If it is I won't be able to join!

Cobham is in leafy Surrey old chap, where the cows in the fields probably produce more emissions than the cars. The LE Zone covers only the old "Greater London" areas of Surrey: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/lez/17678.aspx In others words you'll be OK in your gaz guzzling monster truck

Dammn. I would have made this weeks ride if i had read the thread update in time. Sorry John, I should have texted you, hopefully you can make another one, all of the routes/maps on my phone/PC are named "bockers" "bockers2" etc. so you just have to come...

So what time do I need to be where for this weekend's jolly?
Is this open to non-forum members of good character?

Ah. Yes... You know how I initially proposed the 25th... I'm waiting to hear back from someone about the purchase of my coupe. If they intend on arriving in the morning, I'll have to make my apologies. But at least the coupe would be sold!

I could probably do Sunday 26th if that helps - for once I think I have no church commitments that morning.

So what time do I need to be where for this weekend's jolly? For you it's 7 am, for everyone else 8 am. The Downside car park is free on Sunday. As you come into Cobham from A3 go past BMW garage on right and turn right at next roundabout, then turn right opposite Waitrose and take first left into the car park. Is this open to non-forum members of good character? Well if you're allowed in then we might as well let everyone in Not sure if I will get the required weekend pass for this yet, but Sunday's weather is looking a bit better than Saturday's

Well then if it's Sunday it looks like it could be

Any more takers? If we aim for 8am start, should be back by 12 noon (depending on water/loo/tea/coffee/beer breaks)

Weather looks like it is going to be good. I'll be there. Car park on Hollyhedge Road to leave at 8am. I don't have any electric-trickery to help with the route, though. By the way the speedhumps are back on Boxhill - full road width

Same route as last week.
Barnacle, it was more of a tandem than a peloton! Just me and DaveG this occasion. Unfortunately kenno was served with a last minute injunction against ever wearing lycra shorts.

I made the route slightly shorter by heading straight from Leatherhead down to the foot of Boxhill via the A24 which turned out to be OK to cycle along (except when I ignored Emjay's advice to take to the footpath near the end and shook all my fillings loose cycling over the painted chevrons at the side of the road) Apart from that the ride was more traffic free than last Sunday and far fewer cyclists around too. It was 46 miles and we averaged a pretty good 15.0 mph even though Emjay left me for dead on a few of the hills, it's quite a fast run down from Newlands corner to the end. I think I've now got my bike computer and GPS to pretty much agree, although hills should always mean that the computer should read slightly more.
So, who's up for the next one?

Anita has done this route http://gb.mapometer.com/cycling/route_2252513.html three times in three weeks after not cycling for a year and has increased her average speed from 15kph to 17kph today... she's getting there.

If anyone is planning on doing this, just to say that I definitely can't do the Sunday but Saturday should be fine.
Both days look like the weather is going to be fine.

Come on then you guys, you can't *all* be waiting for Tribans surely? I was away last weekend and Saturday 8th is no good for me (flying back overnight) but maybe Sunday 9th or following Saturday 15th?

Or how about an abridged version for Saturday [or I join for part as I will need to be back for 10.30]

Right then. How about a final ride to close the fccuk group ride cycle season? Sunday 30th September 8am start from the same Downside car park in Cobham, Surrey.
Bockers and all fccuk Triban owners are expected to be there!

I can actually do this Sunday. So put me down.
I am conscious that it may be a bit far for some and it would be great to have a big turn-out, so I suggest that for those who want to join us but do a shorter trip, park at Rykers cafe at the bottom of Box Hill (free parking). NB this is near the 15km marker on the map, then join us all the way round to Abinger Hamer, then head back along the A25/A24 to Box Hill. That's about 40km.
With that in mind, how about actually starting at Box Hill? Then people can join at the beginning and decide if they want to see it through the whole circuit. (It also gives me a chance to leave the car at home)

I'll bet it did. I've never cycled it yet (i keep promising myself i will), but i did cook the brakes on both my old Fiesta and Cavalier. Although, not quite as badly as the time the same Fiesta's clutch started slipping coming down over the cairn o' mount, forcing me to ride the brakes alot more than i would've liked to. I had to park in the ford at the bottom for half an hour to let the water flow through the discs. I may get Mrs Jimbob to drop me off up that way and cycle home, would be a good run.

I'd be happy to be along (my triban 3 has done approximately one FCR distance in total so far!) but - hear me weep - I'm off on a flying holiday on the 29th. I can take your place on the flying holiday if that helps (Apropos of cycling - is 50 minutes for 20km over country roads with upsandowns a reasonable rate for a middle-aged-man-in-lycra?) That is about a 15 mph average which is a good start if you've done 40 or 50 miles.

I guess that's one way to get properly scared without paying for a parachute drop or bungee jump. I was pleased with my 45.5 mph maximum. The bar has been well and truly raised.

A 40km route from Boxhill starting at 8 would finish by 10, I could even get my 13 year old son to come along, he has a footy match at 11:30 but that might work out great for us. So, just the old regulars then?

I have a club ride on Sunday morning, but seeing as this is the last in the season for FCCUK rides I will see if i can make it. Nice one. We just need to decide a start point now. I'm happy with whatever you all decide.

Sorry guys I will have to pull out, been nursing a cough/cold all week and excessive A/C out in the Middle East has killed me off. Hope you break the attendance record!

Shame. No worries. Hopefully next time.

I've not been on a bike for over a month now (apart from an exercise bike in a gym) so need to get a bit of training in, but I did cycle through the winter last year, so I'm still up for another ride, I shouldn't have said "final" after all there is no such thing as "final"...
I should be able to make most weekends, as long as I get permission to miss the odd footy match of either of my sons, however I think Sunday morning is better in terms of the roads being quieter, and a shorter ride that can be done in 2 hours or so will certainly suit me OK, and depending how we go, we can always make it longer.

I can't do this Sunday, unless it allows me to get back for 10am
Saturday is better - and looks to be a nice day.
So my plan is Saturday, starting from home getting me to Rykers for an 8am start for anyone else wanting to join me from there.
Am I going to be on my tod? I've not been on a bike for anything over a couple of miles for several weeks and need to stop the rot.

I'm thinking about doing this with my 13 year old son, but we might take longerr (2½ hours?) to do the 30 mile shorter route but we could go via Leith Hill for a shorter/steeper route!

Not a problem. Happy to go with whatever suits and I'll be glad of the company.

That should be fine. I think you have my number, I'll PM it.
I'll still be up for the morning if anyone else is interested.

Mark and I had a more leisurely ride on Saturday afternoon, with my son in tow (althouhgh he left me behind at the start going up Box Hill) and we did just over 30 miles at almost bang on 12.5 mph average.
Not sure how easy it's going to be to get anyone else out on an fccuk ride before spring next year, it's been almost impossible so far!
Safe cycling everyone!

October is a tough month for me to get out as I play Hockey on Saturdays and there is 3 birthdays and one wedding anniversary to accomodate, which normally means a meal on the staurday or sunday. How about an FCCUK xmas ride? Involves 30-40mile ride which finishes at a btreakfast stop where we have a full english I organise one starting and Finishing in Maidenhead. Mayeb teh 22nd or 23rd December. We could start iand Finish at the Tanhouse in Rusper? http://www.tanhousefarmshop.co.uk/Or Cobham as there are a few Breakfast cafes too. The important thing being the breakfast comes at the end of the ride, cycling on a full stomach is not pleasant.

Sounds a plan bockers. keep us posted.
It was a very pleasant ride on Saturday. Lovely day for it and good to meet G junior - who seems a really nice lad. (Dave I was really struggling the last few miles home, so I'm very glad we went at a measured pace - think I'd have been in all sorts of trouble otherwise)
