wnbr brigton 2015
weather not looking wonderful for sunday overcast and about 16 or 17 degrees just hope the ride attracts lots of riders even though is not going to be as hot ss last year
i am going anyway guess the ride would take place even if raining but hope the rain stays away |
I've ridden at Brighton quite a few times since 2007 and as long as it's dry and not windy, you should get a good turnout. The after ride swim may be less popular with 18 C, but that's a bonus. Facebook has 930+ riders, the biggest bar far with hundreds of young ladies saying they are riding. Obviously, not all will turn up and many will not strip totally, but it looks like a bumper year, as long as the weather stays reasonable.
London looks great, sunny spells and 21C, should be perfect. It looks like there will be a nude cycle jam on Westminster bridge, which should give good photo opportunities! I might make the start at Brighton, but are unable to ride this year, looks like we at OCC seem to have both rides covered this year, something I've been trying to encourage for years! Good luck gentleman, have fun and try to bring as little WNBR spirit to those who cannot get there. |

Not sure if this will be of use to anyone but I found it while googling - a mapmyride taken by someone who rode last year from the Hyde Park start: hxxp://www.mapmyride.com/workout/607654719 Gives you an idea of how long each section takes, as well as showing the precise route of the ride, something I'd previously been unable to find. Interesting that it shows by far the longest stop/slowdown was in the Forum Magnum Square/Waterloo area. I really don't know what I'll do, that's the long and short of it. Last year I did the assemby, got some shots as they gathered. Snapped the ride taking off along Park Lane. Then went off for a bit of a wander down towards the palace, and snapped the riders as they came down Constitution Hill. The big scrum at Wellington Arch meant longish delays, which presented the opportunity for some pictures as the riders waited to enter the small area they had to use as a makeshift finish. Also got some bits and pieces among the riders happy to pose once the ride was done. Didn't get a spectacular haul, but it was still better than previous years. Tempted to do something similar again as I always feel that venturing out into the city is fraught with risks. The obvious one being to miss everything if the ride deviates from previous ones, as happened last year and caught a good few snappers out. |
