I'm interested, depending on route.

Let me know if this doesn't work?

Did a test run yesterday. Took just over 4 hours rolling with a bit of route faffing (old garmin suddenly realising the turn was 100m back a few times...). There's a option to go to Stanmer more directly at the bridleway to the Chattri Memorial and avoid a fair bit of climbing, but the bit by Rottingdean is definitely worth the effort and not as steep.

That's going to be a 75 mile round trip for me. I'm not sure I've got that in me at the moment.
Edit, just looked and it's 85 miles

Ok, I'm gonna be direct and ask if people can't make it if they could still throw a donation into

If you read the attached blog, Charlie is really struggling now and Jacquie needs help to give him the best quality of life she can.

If you're on Instaspam I'm using #rideforcharliecunningham you can always do your own thing and tag me?

What kind of pace and terrain is the ride likely to be? I'm long off the bike so 25miles around Stamner Park and up and down Ditching Beacon might be a bit much for me :/

Hi Jamie I've downloaded the route to my garmin so if we feel the need to do the route at a slower pace we can just do our own thing if you want to? I haven't ridden that much lately.

There's a short cut that depending on numbers we may take anyways. That cuts off the sloggiest bit of climbing too.

We haven't had a South East area ride for ages so looking forward to this. Rode my retro bike to work today to make sure it was ok. Got a puncture but everything else seems ok!
