   I think I'm in the main campsite, green T4, I'll be on the above going for broke and am hoping to get round in under 10hrs if it stays dry!

   The one with nice blue stickers, rather than the shouty 'look at meeee' red ones

   Blue stickers are definitely the best. They need a blue saddle to really set them off though

   Coo eee!

   I'm going. I'll be in a ditch, wrapped in my new space, blanket blowing my new whistle about 10 miles in. Old Kona Kula abandoned haphazardly nearby.

   See you there

   I'll be arriving early afternoon tomorra in my silver motorhome. Look for the old git riding a red and white cube as pictured on the ad above. Will be wearing my bad brains mbc top (ride bikes, drink beer, eat cake) and will be annoying other riders with the continuous clicking from my cranks (no, not my dodgy knees).

    Just about to start loading the car up. Im leaving after 1am when the roads are quiet and probably sleeping in the car (although will have the bivvy bag with me just in case it's fine).

    Hoping to get a bit further than the 4.8 miles i did last year when my seatpost clamp bolt snapped!

    I'll be on the clapped out colnago and very narrow tyres.........

    See you all there!

    Old Hummer with yellow Rebas for me. Arriving Friday evening and fretting about my sore throat.

    I'm staying down the road in some nice posh 5-star b&b that the wife likes will be riding my Soul in black, me dressed in black lycra and on-one jersey with white helmet. Very much looking forward to it.

    See you fine gentlemen and ladies down at the start

    Will be there on my turquoise 575, wearing the first thing that comes ot of the bag that looks suitable. Staying at Kielder campsite with Mrs B, somewhere near Tracker1972 if I can find him. He is proper keen as he is there already.

    I'll be riding a common as muck Jones. You'll be able to tell me from Dean because I'll be nearer the back. dRjON's is, I think, less swoopy and I'll probably be nearer the back than him too.

    Probably wearing the same Twin Six Speedy top as last year. Yes, I have washed it since.

    I'll be there. Chevin Van and a Superfly not going as fast as it deserves! Probably riding in 29er kit (it's black therefore slimming!)

    Rigid geared Pegasus here - bike far better than the rider, who will be a fat lad in a yellow top and black and white shorts (probably). Sliver Mondeo, Kielder campsite
