Planned to ride it this Sept but a broken hip has buggered up my plans. My friends ride it last Aug and had a great time.

Watching the tour was tough as they went over lots of the climbs such as the Aspin, Tormalet, etc. Wish I was going.

me and a group of mates are planning a trip to do it ourselves next september.
i dont think i can do it as a event (100 hours), but i reckon it will be ace to try and ride as much of it as i can for a weeks tour.
rode 3 big col's last may and it was awesome.

something to train for........... 8)

just paid up for next year's raid alpine with marmot tours.

LEJOG this september should be a good base to start winter weight loss and miles, i think...
