Well, it looks like I'm going to have to drop out of the race for last place... I've woken up today feeling b*****y terrible, all fluey and stuff, and seeing as I have my PhD Viva on Monday I think I am, for once, going to do the sensible thing and not try and kill myself on a 100 mile bike ride!

Good luck everyone...

PS. Anyone want an entry?

This is my first year. Just sat at home waiting for bike shop to call, after dropping off for a quick once over to check brakes etc. I returned to pick it up last night to find the rear shock in pieces! A new bushing is on order and should be there by 11. I'm down near Bath so 6 hour drive after that. Fingers crossed!

I'm hoping to do a sub 10 hour, anyone else doing the same fancy doing it in a pack? I'll be using the Garmin to measure the pace. I reckon keep average speed at around 11mph with 45 minutes of stopping, faffing, eating.

It's a plan anyway ๐Ÿ™‚

I'd be up for a sub 10hour group.
