100K THREE COUNTIES L'EROICA SUNDAY 14 JUNE 2015
Event info
100k all on road challenge ride through Northants, Bucks and Beds, ideally for pre-1980 cycles but all welcome, in aid of Willen Hospice and Cyclists Defence Fund.
Start and finish - Forest Cafe, Salcey Forest, Hartwell, Northants NN7 2HX 9.45am for 10am start. This is a simply run event on the lines of the old reliability rides with route sheet and map provided (download on mkctc.org.uk - past events). Refreshments available at Forest Cafe and en route at cafes, pubs and shops. Ample car parking at the start.
Test those pre-1980 cycles before the big one up north the following week but note we do not insist on pre-1980 tweed jackets!
Happy + safe cycling to all.
Fair enough, personal experience may trump (not that one) theory. However, the bonking I have experienced has been due to lack of carbs. Your point...
Agreed, but he was still right to publicise the event. The police, if they're anything like Lancashire, will do nothing at all.
I'm not a Lance fan at all but the snarky tone of this is just dumb....
Weird - it was there earlier.

How can anybody reject the beauty of that? It's a wonderful mix of modern tech yet absolutely functional.
Not unless theVED is made eye wateringly expensive....
in the UK we have policing which to a greater or lesser extent relies on assistance from members of the public......
Just wanted to share a quick thank you to everyone who helped out in this thread....
So...don't cycle on it. Lots of other routes around that area. Source: I used to work there.
