Hi

I',m doing the 112mile option, looks like its a nice flat route (hate hills) thought i'd put it out there if anyone fancies it???

    I could be tempted, as I too am not a fan of hills.

    65 miles my furthest so far, but with food stops, and motivation and a steady (not fast) pace I should manage it ???

    Entries close in 14 days.

    Anyone else up for it?

    I have singed up for the 112 mile option.

    Is anyone else doing it?

    Yey, hopefully see you there. Althought I think there were 600 entries last time I looked :-)

    I'll be in my new CC Aswell shirt, assuming it's not covered up by a waterproof.

    Completed Flat Out In The Fens.
    total 109.4 miles.
    total time, 8.07
    riding time 7.02
    average speed 15.5mph, based on riding time.
    First 65 miles average speed was 17.2mph, then turned into the wind :( average speed for the rest was 13.6mph.Ttwo food stops and 2 punctures.
    Think the punctures cost me a silver time. but very happy with my first Sportive and 100 miler.

    I know Ruth finished well up on me.

    Was a good day

    a bit miffed that this probably cost me a gold, (6:30 cut off)

    average speed of 17.1mph
