Saturday 24th November - Penshurst Challenge Ride


This Saturday we met at Penshurst Place for our off site ride.  Whichever way you ride from there it's up a hill, so everyone had the opportunity to challenge themselves. The climbs on offer were:

  • Penshurst Place to Top Of The World - Col de Sidney
  • Ensfield Road to Top Of The World - Col d'Ensfield
  • Penshurst Village to James Bond Barn - Col de Porc (off road)
  • The Pond to Kingdom - Col de Kingdom
The weather was murky and not very inviting.  Nevertheless eleven hardy KVKs and assorted parents turned up and we split into groups.

Harry, Oliver, Lucy, Alfie, Zach, Gabriel, Elliott, Darcey, Jess, Ems & Ewan.

Great riding from everyone and congratulations on conquering those hills!  It wasn't a great day for photos, so just a few to prove we actually did it!  Next time, it'll be further and/or faster :-)

Harry and Oliver made it up to Kingdom

Lucy arrived shortly after due to a delayed start :-)

Johnny's penalty for late arrival was repairing Harry's puncture!

Riders led by Gavin returning from Hayesden after their final climb: Col d'Ensfield


Ewan still smiling, not sure about James!
