Today is the last day to enter. https://secure.onreg.com/onreg2/front/step1.php?id=1594

 

Who's doing it (again?/first time?) and how did the winter preparation go? Any time expectations / training war stories?

 

Will see how my legs are after a case of 'wuss lung' and little other riding than the Kremetart & Jock. Maybe this year is not the year to hope for a sub 3 on this route? 3:08 and 3:20 being my times so far ...

@Trubie, you still busy with secret training, a.k.a. base building

@CycleWizz, there are no real hills here, so your chain'll be fine

@Andyr249, should be an easy spin after the mountains of your last 'real' ride!

 

Anybody else on here doing any cycling?

I will be there, my first time doing this race and it's gonna be interesting because I haven't really done any rides close to 110kms since the argus... :eek:

I'm in. Going to try and stick with the bunch during the mad dash from the start.

That would be the fabled neutral zone; 0 - heart attack in 50mtrs.

And again the regestration is only on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday between 9am and 4pm, do they think cyclist dont work or do they expect us to take a days leave just to regester for their race!

Yes, we'll both be there.

You want to have breakfast afterwards ?

 

What nonsense is this about "hope for a sub 3" ??

Somebody with your talent should be aiming for a sub 2:45 !!

 

I'm going to attempt to do what I did last year and sit on Andy's wheel but this year he's in better form.

I'll be there - and hugging the yellow line. Been doing this race for about 10 years now, and was there when there was the fatal accident when an oncoming car hit the bunch. Have never ridden on the RHS of a bunch since....
