Can I just turn up??

Hi guys,

I know the London - Brighton ride is organized hence limited space. But
I was wondering wether I could just turn up and ride.

If so what time would I have to be at the common, it is clapham common
right? Any one fancy meeting me there. Only found out today that the
ride was tommorow but I'm in reasonably good nick and the bike has just
had it's service.

Officailly, No! Only advance entries

Officailly, Yes! they do take entries on the day but do not publicise the
fact.

Unofficaially, Yes, but don't! - many join the ride just after the start
and peel off just before the end.

pk

and how much is it to enter on the day?

When I took part (back in late 80s and early 90s), I was officially
registered to do so, but on both occasions rather than face the huge
crush in Clapham Common, I just set off from a few streets away from the
park. No one checked on me from start to finish, so I'd say there's
nothing to stop anyone joining in if they want.
