milky4130 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Open something. It's gonna be a loooong day for meme too but personally hoping for the $ bunch not that I'm going to race it.
milky4130 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I'm riding for Sabrina Love Foundation. Will I get notified by the organisation or by Sabrina Love? Hope my start is not too late morningusually between 8-9am some charity groups even start before 8.
Stiggy Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Have they released the email about 2nd lap?I'm keen to do 2nd laps as going to be my last one for awhile
Belgian biker Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 usually between 8-9am some charity groups even start before 8. around 8 would be perfect, I expect to finish in about 6hrs. another beginners question, say my start is at 8, what time should I be near the start? half an hour early, one hour?

It can be a bit confusing if you don't know the lay out and the place. There are thousands of people milling around from before 6am and there is a very good vibe and loud music with a party feeling. Rather get there too early and chat a bit and take everything in.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 usually between 8-9am some charity groups even start before 8.I think it was HH last year. If you have a better seeding though, you can start with your group.
leaboy Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 So seeding will be released tomorrow, what do you think you'll get? Hoping for E or lower, or is it higher?

milky4130 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Hoping for E or lower, or is it higher? As in C or D?
milky4130 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I 'm already excited now! I'll be so nervous, it'll be hard to sleep well the night before Even after my 12th Cycle Tour i still cant sleep the night before, so its best to get good sleep the 2-3 nights before the event & maybe nap the Saturday afternoon a long one & dont spend hours & hours at the expo the saturday, you are just tiring out the legs.
DJR Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 around 8 would be perfect, I expect to finish in about 6hrs. another beginners question, say my start is at 8, what time should I be near the start? half an hour early, one hour? The start has such an exciting vibe, I would suggest that your husband might want to join you and see you off at the start. Get a fresh croissant and some good coffee in a little thermos flask and have it there while taking in the sights, sounds and smells. Perhaps the place where you stay can help with the coffee and croissant. Buying something that early, with so many people around, is not an option in my opinion. Edit: Take lots of pictures!
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I think I'm going to have a pre-ride brekkie at one of the places on the route. If my maffs are correct, I may be starting as late as 10am. That'll need some serious sustenance to go on...
