    Normally starts at 11.00
    Might be different though.
    They might need to start early so it doesn’t get dark before “some people” get back. 🙄
    Best to get there on friday and ask Fraz/ Teg in the beer tent.

    pretty sure its 11. Every year i wonder why it is so late, then am late due to faff, breakfasting, more faffing.

    You could have asked your BnB if you’re stopping in Mach.
    They’re well used of what goes on.

    You best work on your sense of humour before you get there. Sounds like you might need it.

    Just dandy pal. Fire road climbs bore me. Im used to proper steep climbs not boring long fire roads they pants. Live on the north downs so not much altitude 644ft highest point. Its getting up em. Some are real steep and very technical. Fire roads are pieice of piss no matter how long. Come try some local climbs round here thats proper climbing. Not so long but oh so steep. On wet chalk. Love em!

    I think last year it took me 1hour to get from the start line to the queue at the top of the first singletrack decent.
    Many 1hr climbs in Kent?
    and gulleys filled with roof slates , wet roof slates.

    Yep. Not for the ups but the downs. Nothing round here comes close to the altitude down there. Just no big descents locally. Lake garda next week 🙂 be some descending there I know. 2000mts down to 65mts. Yes please

    No hardly any one hour climbs unfortunately. 25 mins from river level to the highest point @644 ft Big long climbs i would love to have local just not the case around here. Short sharp and testing. If you can climb the hard ones round here your climb anything.

    And that’s why no one likes people from kent. 😉
    I really hope you enjoy it but just try and relax a little.
    It’s a great event once you get over all the people that blow up on the first climb/ push down the first descent.
    To me and most multi entrants that i know it seems to be about a great weekend away that has a ride attached to it.
