Is anyone (with a car) able to offer a ride/petrol share to the WRT for one small woman and her bike from the Brighton area please?

Hi there. Should be able to squeeze you in. I'm driving up from seaford on the Saturday morning, picking a mate and his bike up from a train station somewhere en route. There are a few bits to iron out, but put me down as 90% good for it!

Fab, thanks a lot. I didn't want to have to rely on our superb train service from Southern!.... being late for work I don't mind, being late for a bike ride is unforgivable :-)
Let me know once your ironed your bits and can coordinate details.... i can get to Reading by train which is an offer from someone else so no sweat if your bits and bobs dont fall into line.. appreciate it. Elaine

No worries Elaine. Sounds like Retiredtester your man. Im still not 100% due to Sky's illness but hopefully should be sorted one way or other by then.
