Echoing others, it was another well organised event and a credit to the club, many thanks for organising to Sean and family and to those others from the club who make it happen. Seemed the numbers this year were higher than ever.
There was even a choice of cake left at HQ for us stragglers!
Thanks to Sean who organised it and Sam, Dave and everyone that helped out today. It seemed like a good turnout and definitely made my legs hurt when Adam was on the front doing monster turns!!
Really enjoyed today - Well done Sean and family for putting it together. Wish i could of stayed and eaten a few more cakes !
Weather was kind to us all - little chilly but hey that goes after about 5mins. Hope all had a good ride, would have been good to have seen a few others at the front before the big hills. well at least my legs may have liked it a bit better.
All being well will see some of you next week, if i get a pass out!
I've had a go at a route card for the 48 miler, here it is. I'll bring a few copies along. Also I mapped the ride last year. Here is the link: http://www.a-trip.com/tracks/view/42536 sorry if the link doesn't work. I have tried to make it "public" but it might not have worked.
