A couple of friends and I are going to cycle up to Cambridge on Sunday 2nd July finishing with a swim in the lovely 90m lido at Jesus Green and then train back to London afterwards.
Distance likely to be around 100km but this can be extended if we all feel like it, pace will be strictly social/touring (around 22km/hr) with a lunch stop about 3/4s of the way. If anyone would like to join us for a gentle ride through some lovely (and flat!) countryside and a spot of lido tourism then post below.
UPDATE:
Weather is looking good for this Sunday so lets meet at Brockwell Lido at 8am for an 8.15 departure. So far we have got: Erika, Emily, Becky, Adele, Katy, Alicja plus 4 non-WR members. Anyone else is welcome to join. Please PM me your numbers and let me know if you are running late/not coming.
I've mapped a route here: 110km and limited climbing so hopefully around 5hrs riding. https://www.strava.com/routes/9391486
Don't forget to bring usual bike nutrition, drinks and inner tubes, plus your swimming gear, a decent bike lock (lots of bike thefts in Cambridge!), and some money for lunch, the lido (£4.60), and the train back (~£15).
And as noted above, speed will be social, especially as we're carrying so much stuff!

Hi Erika, sounds awesome, I'd love to join this :-)
Bump ... and updated details above
Just seen this. Sounds good!
Hey Erika, I'd like to join too if that's cool...will PM my details now :-)
Great to have you along Rob and Aine, see you Sunday
This looks great Eirka & I could certainly do with some touring, but alas I am in Farnham with a friend taking part in The Franham Sportive on Sunday.

Erika quick clarification - I can't make it this weekend but I love the idea of lido tourism so will be definitely in for the next one! Have a fab day on Sunday!
No worries Alicja, I am already plotting the next one ....
