Past activity
Leave comments, plans and speculation regarding upcoming meet-ups here.
24th May 2008 (Saturday) - The nearest village is Dunsfold, a mile away to the south-west; however, it seems to be a pretty small village. The point is in a small wood; streetmap.co.uk shows a path going to the exact point!
31st May 2008 (Saturday)
- Near Horsham, in "Monk's Wood". Kit will probably come. Quite happy with the new location - it's not far from a public path. Despite lots of talking about it, Steve didn't make it.
7th June 2008 (Saturday)
- Between platforms 13 and 14 in Waterloo Station.
15th December 2008 (Monday)
- Amersham Road, close to Chalfont and Latimer Rail Station.
- Kate will be riding from Uxbridge and will be there at about 9:30 am (and is super excited about a Northern Hemisphere Geohash!)
