Hell of the Ashdown opens on 5th Nov
For anyone who hasn't done it, Hell of the Ashdown (HOTA) is a brilliant beginning of the season sportive over all your favourite Kent hills. It's a great kick up the bum to get you back into training after the winter (...I mean, to congratulate yourself on how well you did keeping the training up through the winter). It's really well organised by a local club and has lots and lots of cake. There's a different route and start point to check out this year.
Anyway, get your fingers on your buzzers because the entries open at 21:30 on 5th November 2015, and last year all the places went within about 24 hours.
(You have to put a start time, I think normally Windrushers start fairly near the beginning, but they're usually fairly flexible on the day).

I would love a lift and bike spot too please if you still have room Charles? :)

That is fine Becky. Probably easiest if we all meet at the lido at 8am and load up there.

Colin,
I have a place that I am not going to use. I don't know what the rules are for swapping places but you would be welcome to it if that would work?

I've emailed the organiser to ask if we can swap entries around - if it is allowed we will need emergency contact details etc to be supplied

Hi Jenny - that would be great if the names could be swapped around. Thanks for the heads up.
Let me know Tony and I can send the organisers my details.
Cheers

Just heard back from the organisers and unfortunately they closed transfers a couple of weeks ago to send starter packs to printers etc.
Colin you could ride with us as it is on open roads but you should bring your own food and not raid the official feed stations ( although that has been known naming no names but you know who you are ) - also you wouldn't get a time but it is a great ride

That's a shame but thanks for asking for me Tony. I may well join you guys anyway. If I do I'll pack a thermos and some sandwiches!

A few of us are going to attempt this ride but at a slow and steady pace. If anyone is interested in setting off together at a very leisurely pace post here and we will try organise to meet at the start / sort a watsap group.

Hi Charles, Just wanted to check if you have space for a little one (and my bike obviously) in your car? I think you may be fully booked?!

Yes, I am afraid so Lisa. My limit is four people plus bikes (including me) and I have already got Clair, Jake and Becky coming along.
There may well be some other people driving to the start, so keep sending out feelers.
