So don’t do it then! Bloody minded so-and-so that ye are! 😀
I like them. I tend to go harder, over slightly different roads, and I tend to go furtyer than I would of a normal Sunday morning. I don’t travel far for them, but it’s interesting to do a different patch.
I normally ride Surrey Hills. On sunday I did 93 miles with the Essex Roads club out of Billericay. They brought the bread pudding, and marked out a delightful 93 mile circular route and gave me a route card for it. I rode round and they gave me a cup of tea at the end.
I don’t understand why anyone trains for a local one rather than the Marmotte or whatever, but personally I do them for a change of scene.
