    Getting from 9am climb to 11am climb, probably best going through Baldock, Wallington, Sandon and staying off the A505 completely. 10.5 miles.

    Google map.

    Sandon to Kershall is a bit dodgy at the moment so maybe it's better to go via Therfield

    Cool. As long as there's still enough time to fit me aero bars for Part Deux... ;-)

    Tactics... tactics...

    And can I get a hoofing big push for my second bit too??

    I'm going to try and take Friday night off for this.
    Not happy with Sundays time, need another go haha

    Hi - so will the race start at 9.30? (with sign-on from 9). Thanks
  • tducketttduckett
    Yep, thats the plan.

    Oh and its £3 as usual.
  • tducketttduckett
    For the record, the fastest times on the courses since we have been doing it are both by Josh M....2.23 on Baldock and 4.46 on Coombe.

    Oh my. Something for Maynard Junior and Doncaster Junior to look forward to, then.

    Personally, I'm hoping not to see paint-less, bar tape-less, ear lobe-less riders on Saturday! Bring it on

    on the baldock hill climb where does the timing start and stop? right at the bottom of the hill and the sign post at the top or does it go on for a bit longer?
  • tducketttduckett
    start is right at the bottom by the sign, cant remember what it says.
    Finish is middle of the bridge over the main road.

    by the way, still need a timekeeper.

    Anyone else riding out from Ashwell 8:45 ish?
  • Theo-saurusTheo-saurus
    Looks unlikely I'll ride this one guys, I'm down with a cold :(
  • bryndbrynd
    I'll be riding through Ashwell at about then and since I don't really know the way some company would be great!
  • gwenwazgwenwaz
    I'll be leaving Ashwell at about 8.45am too - shall we meet at the Tuns?

  • mattssmattss
    Weather not looking too good!
  • tducketttduckett
    Not great no. Im sure a bit of rain wont put you all off will it?

    ....please dont let me stand in the rain on my own....

    On the plus side a strong northerly so a chance to put a record time down on coombe.
  • bryndbrynd
    Gwen - the tuns at 8.45 would be great, see you there
  • gwenwazgwenwaz
    Great! see you at the Tuns - come rain or....even more rain.
