Legs of Steel SPORTIVE
Just thinking about this one! Two distances, starts and finishes Box Hill, 46 and 81km of nasty hills. Anyone fancy it? Ironman Steve Young is doing it!
STOP PRESS: Seems this is full now, who's doing it?

A fantastic turnout of established and new riders on this perfect, sunny day!
Now we are ready to split the Saturday ride into two speeds; we had a little difficulty catering for the fit, fast, young ones and those who prefer something a little less competitive.
Ooops, we did lose a couple of people. Rule No 1, keep an eye on the lead group, we won't leave you, just don't turn off and hot shots, Rule No 2, WAIT at junctions unless you are sure of the way!
But we all made it to Tulley's and had some great sprints on the way back.
2-3 hours duration
17-20mph average speed
Meeting point is the bus shelter in Leigh Village (opposite the pub)
Everyone is welcome, but be aware of the above speed & duration and please try to wear club kit if possible.

Join us for a ride to the RSPB cafe between Storrington and Pulborough. A round trip of about 70 miles at an average speed of 15mph and back by 15.00. As usual riders who want a shorter ride may turn back at any time and riders feeling frisky may put the mhammer down on the return journey if they know the way. Join us for a sociable ride in good company at a sporty pace.
Starting at The Angel as usual. The purpose of these rides is to welcome new people and we ride at their speed in quiet lanes but anything from 20 to 40 miles. Plenty of opportunity for stronger riders to sprint and attack hills!
In accordance with the 'Ride Safety' published on this site, The Highway Code, the CTT etc, bright clothing and helmets are recommended, I also advise gloves/mitts.
Please drop me a line to confirm you're coming, particularly if you are new to the club! Thanks.
Richard will lead the early morning ride from the Inn on the Pond to Outwood. It will be about 10 miles at a brisk pace where we will meet up with Frank for his ride at 9.30.
Redhill CC rider and British Cycling Coach John Leitch inspired a great days mixed sportive cycling for club road riders on Saturday last.
Redhill riders displayed good form as the ad hoc team delivered the goods on a day of fair conditions in the well known Picardy Sportive.
With new clubman Kevin Stroud impressing in the longer Masters event and club veteran riders John Leitch, Graham Haysom and Andy Ramsay in the senior distance, all posted times well within the Gold Category standards (Brevet d'Or) of Sport Communication's efficiently run Sportive.
