I rode up from Hindhead on the road bike. Had to have a word ( rant ) at a blithering idiot who overtok on the blind left hand corner just after the Good Intent at Puttenham. Caught him at the junction and put my point across , without swearing .
Rode up over the Hogs Back and watched on the short sharp climb out of Warnborough.
Great atmosphere with a big crowd , saw myself on the tele too.
Then rode around for 30 mins , and had my arse properly handed to me by a girl from Wyndy Millars race team . Then back up to the A31 Hogs Back exit where I watched the break from the outside of the corner ( saw myself on the tele again ) , and the peleton from the inside apex , so about 1m away.
Found some Oakleys so had a right result , then met a rider in Elstead and rode back to the car part way with him.
Was a great atmosphere , with people waiting cheering and shouting ‘Allez’ at me as I rode the wrong way up the route , about an hour before the race was due.
