Yes - rode it the day before the race last year, going back again this year, but in an hotel with sauna...

I've done it, back in 10' it was ace and hard, I broke my elbow having hit a curb coming out of a section of cobbles onto a Tarmac road.
I got to watch the rest of the lads hack on by then watch the race. Slept in the van with my mate and ate fries and drank beer.. 😀

I've done the full distance three times on the summer sportive. First time in a hell of mud (just crown visible in many sections), second time broke the rear mech on the second section of pave and single speeded to the end, then in 38degrees the final time. Some of the best days out ever.

I'll be on the sofa watching the suffering. Will anyone beat Fabien?
