Thanks Phil. Certainly some deals out there. Planet X have some good frames in bigger sizes too. Merckx etc. I am leaning towards a CruX rig and swapping over everything from my winter bike. Just need some frogs and tyres then.

I'm getting a X frame and am v looking forward to my debut mud plugging this yr. Its a winter bike take apart and X rebuild jobby for me. After a false start last yr this has to be the best winter fat busting leg pumping scheme around. Let me at it…

Suffolk coastal cross winds for a week for me. Deep sections and pointy bike should be interesting. Maybe how to get bigger arms in 7 days:)

This was a great event and next year the plan is to have at least 26500 entries with a view to growing it to 35000. The ballot for 2014 is due to open on Monday! Thanks again to Stef for getting so many entries and everyone for a very memorable an…

Top tip - put all your kit in a rucksack and put this in the kitbag. I think all of CCA must be in the blue wave and G spot. Hopefully it will be easy to find...

Any suggestions on how we can find each other in the start area? I guess we are all making our own way to the start so it will be difficult. Is this a blue train event?

Cheers chaps. What a great morning, route and chattyness. Mission accomplished and needed a short nap after that. Roll on RIDE 100.

Lead the way Jamie!

Yay we have a posse

Good group of about 10/12. Back on the usual chaingang circuit. Pretty smooth first lap recorded an average speed of 23.8mph. Other group a bit smaller and used the Abington Piggot loop.

Vince - I'm with you mate;)

i rode the 'new' bit of road on Sunday evening. An interesting 'method of repair' but rode okish
-
Thanks everyone for enabling the event to happen. Glad I have got my annual 10 out of the way. Normally in about 12 months time I will have forgotten all the discomfort and have another go, however the horses in Guilden, OAP cornering at Wrestlingwo…

Weather looks spot on

In case any of the following helps anyone else working out what to do, and Adam asked me at the weekend how i am getting on with my logistics for this event which is now less than 19 days away. i gave him a blank look.... So having put my mind to it…

Really enjoyed that. A bit longer than I thought it would be and with a few frustrated TT boys pulling us along it was quicker than normal but all stayed together until the grande finale up Northfields. Glad Chris has cleared up his guest appearanc…

i will do a cake

Following the great success of people paying their subs online (thanks everyone it made things very efficient this year) we are looking at setting up a system for people to order and pay for kit online rather than needing to go to the pub and pay Kit…

I have managed to book a room in Starbottom. Martin has pointed out this may be a shared bodily feature by the end of Saturday;) See you in the pub then on Friday evening. Should i risk 404's with tubs on? i need all the help i can muster.... Seem…

Nyet. Its solo for me this week as i need to be home early doors. Have a good one
-
i'm going to do this. Don't be worried about it being 25 miles. Its actually a nicer ride than the club 10!
-
i aim to be there for 7pm start at the three tuns
-
I think i have recovered from the shock of the banking. Thanks for organising everything Geoff and hope we can all have another go soon. A few pics to follow those coaches were a bit scary
-
I'll bring the mustard
-
I am doing hills. Any company would be great. M route repeats only though so don't expect any enthusiasm for this.... Need to be home for 11ish
-
Lookin good Marty. Not lookin good is the amount of preparation completed to date. I will be doing the M route (quite possibly with a bit of M-people in a Duckett sur Galibier styles) quite a lot in the morning!

Any spaces left in cars travelling up and back from our neck of the woods? Or if others in same boat as me (currently without a lift) i am happy to drive and car share - comes from no smoking or pets home

That must have felt like a real let down mate. Bet you feel really deflated about it:) Lovely morning if a bit chilly. I went round in a manner to complete the distance and managed it ok. Didn't know any of the corners until lap 3 and then only jus…

Hoping to do this and Robbie promised to ride it as well:) Is it in the morning?
