You're all **** slow. Brake-dragging on the climbs and coasting on the flat sections. Is it a race or a charity fun ride?

What tires for Daily Express style hysteria?
We've had snow before and 2 years ago it was -6°C. Not a problem.

Anyone got an entry, who can't make it??

Good point. There is a new foot climb for 2012 that we have wittily christened "The Bastard".
is that its corporate name?
Not yet. Corporate naming depends on whether we can hang a banner there.
It may well end up being The Hope Technology Bastard.

Have you thought of approaching RBS?
No thanks. We only asked people that we like. We're quite fussy in this respect. Ethics and that.
Isnt COOKSONS CYCLES, just round the corner from the race for any bits you may need to buy.
If you arent going to bother the podium then the best thing to do in a race is start from the very back and see how not last you can make yourself.
I think there are a good few of us who will be competing to start last
I am last and so is my wife

It is, and to make it easier they will have a trade stand at the race so you can buy all your new bits before you chuck your wreckage in the boot of your car.
Are there refreshments on site as well.
There will be. Bacon butt and a brew from a van usually.
