Not only did I make it but I smashed last years time by 90 mins and finished in under 4 hours

Just read the post, well done! I'd love to give that a go, i will do once i've gotten back into shape, just commuting for now but who knows.
Cheers Man, I did it last year too, at over 25 stone, it took me a little over 5 hours, if you do , do it, then just enjoy it, then the year after get into the zone like I did his year LOL
Its a really nice ride out, some of the other "cyclists" abilitys can get you frustrated, my tip, leave early, avoid te people who ride just once a year
Lots of PBs, but will the fantastic tail wind get a mention?
We had a head wind
Wow! Good going
Cheers Mate
