I searched but couldn't see a thread on this yet. Who is off to Belgium next weekend? What distance are you signed up for?
I've signed up for the middle distance which should hurt a bit as I hadn't ridden my bike in 2016 until a week ago.
not riding it but will wander down with the kids (I live in the area) to enjoy the suffering of others 😉
I'll be watching the race from the comfort of my sofa with a big bowl of mussels, frites and beer.
Who is off to Belgium next weekend?
You mean the weekend after, right? as its going to be pretty quiet there on the 26th/27th
Isn't the 26/27th [i]this[/i] weekend and Flanders [i]next[/i] weekend?
Did the middle distance last year.
Great event and atmosphere!
The food stops are brilliant and massive!
People will be chearing you on up the hills.
Distance felt less as I was so enjoying the atmosphere!
You will have a great time!

Meh, probably!?
Did the 127Km distance last year, which was good fun, the cobbles are "interesting" in teh wet though!
Yep, giving it a go again on the 129. It's great fun although the chaos on the big cobbled comes does take the edge off a bit. Planning on a very early start to see if that helps but I'm not sure it does.
Still looking forward to it and the next day is brilliant. Looking forward to the big screen, kwaremount beer and frites again 🙂
Long one number 14 for me, just hope the weather is better than last year!
If anyone has a ticket and circumstances mean you can't use it....
dknwhy is right. I hope.
Hmmm this is the third cycling trip to Europe in six months that I may miss due to work (I must be the cycling holidays ideal customer - book and can't make it!!). I might have a spare place with PedalActive.
Very pissed off cycling wise. Pretty happy for the business!
Our club have rented a farmhouse for the weekend. So it's the 130k on Saturday, and watching the race with beer and frites on the Sunday.
I'm looking forward to it!
Anyone who's done the middle distance a number of times have a recommended time to start or are the climbs always rammed? I tried looking through the videos from last year for a quiet point and there didn't seem to be any
I'll keep an eye out for you Kryton57.
Tony - no email in your profile. If it looks like your plans might go wonky, I'd be interested in whether we can work out something.
Hi golo - I can't see your email either! If I can't make it I'll let you know.
Last time I went you could register on the day. But do not trust me on that..
Hi Tony - stw+admin@west29dotnet
Not wishing to jinx it but the weather forecast is looking good.
Good? It's looking great :). Max 17 is good for me
