Certainly like to give it another go - depends on footy arrangements. This is an excellent event, however, I would agree with Jez's comments, this can get tough - you have been warned.
this year there is no massed start which ruins it for me, you can start any time between 8-10ish. Think I was second man home last year with that corleys cyclo cross rider. I plan to sign on at 9am and see who's there......
This should really be in the racing section, not sportives. It is heavy, at least it used to be. The staggered start Andre notes will calm things down a bit. I guess aim for a 09:00 start if you like it spicy.
its not spicy until the end really and the first one is short. Stay off the front, dont ride too far back and pay attention when the splits start....If ash turns up then like me hang on as long as you can!

Nice to start together at 9am - a bit 'London Phoenix'. Though I doubt I'll hold on for long. I'm sure I'll latch on to others. As Andr
