I know there is the original thread kicking around but I thought it would be good to easliy see who else will be going.

I'm in. Transport sorted and looking forward to it. Anyone else?

I'm in. Getting transport down with a mate and then looking to start around 8:30 and not hammer it too much.

I'll be on a Van Nicholas Mistral in MTB gear

I'm in...as one of the organisers!
About ten pals coming down - bikes in a transit van and the guys on the train.
Over 500 signed up, though we know.we'll have a few drop outs.
Weather looking ok too!
Thanks for entering guys and hope you have a great night.
Fraser

Yip. Looking like I'll be riding there and back. Luckily it finishes 2 minutes from my house.

Change of plan - booked the train instead. There are still bike spaces

I'm surprised, we got told weeks ago that the bike slots on the train were full. My bro is heading back to Newcastle afterwards too and the first five trains on Sunday are full for bikes.

I'm out unfortunately. Was going to make it a loop from Newcastle but am still tired from last weekend and can't handle another 300 mile ride and no sleep.

I was told weeks ago that there were no spaces left and tried again last week, same story. That is odd.

A little bit of rain forecast. I can tell the weather is gonna keep us guessing what to wear.

The fantastic Markus Stitz (Capital Trail organiser and inspiration) has a spare space in his car, travelling from Edinburgh. Get in touch via @reizkultur if that's of use.
Perhaps a touch of rain in the middle section. Bring a jacket.
