If you don't fancy the Reliability on Sunday:
Southern Wolds. 150k. Probably refuel in a café in Swanland. The only big hill is the one out of Millington, the terrain just rolls after that.
Should be back between 3 and 4, but strap on a couple of LEDs.
See you in The Square at 0900.

Glad you got sorted Chris. I never like splitting the group like that, but I think you made a wise decision there. Stick at it, you're doing well (you know the score...)
The headwind picked up a lot on the exposed sections on the run in to Swanland. And we couldn't turn down the superb cooked breakfast in Oliver's Coffee Shop. We utilised the local knowledge of both Andy and Austin to devise an improved route out of the southern Wolds. This involved a couple of extra climbs, but quieter roads. Then the long ride back with a cross tailwind. Thanks to Jonny, Austin, Andrew and Andy for some strong pulling. My legs were like cooked spaghetti coming up the last click to Grimston Bar.... Smack on 150km as advertised...
A trip to the seaside next week.
Looking forward to the "roundup" thread - there were a couple of groups out in the rain on Saturday (chapeau!) and I hope the Reliability went well.
