OPINION
We're riding the Cotswold Spring Classic

Cotswold Spring Classic logoYes indeed - come easter monday we'll be lining up for a bit of early season sportive action, and we'll be bringing the camera to record it all for posterity, including the bits where we fall in a hedge or get swept up by the broom wagon, possibly. Certainly the bits where we clean the tea stop out of cake.
weather permitting we'll be the guys in the road.cc jerseys so come say hello!
I think there are still places left at http://www.cotswoldspringclassic.co.uk/ if you haven't made plans for your bank holiday yet
Dave is a founding father of road.cc, having previously worked on Cycling Plus and What Mountain Bike magazines back in the day. He also writes about e-bikes for our sister publication ebiketips. He's won three mountain bike bog snorkelling World Championships, and races at the back of the third cats.

I'll be there, trying to tear myself away from the feeding station! this is my first sportive for a while and I've turned myself into a wreck trying to suss out the route while trying to be very zen with it all...very nervous
always nice to have something to live up to
