Choice of two please pick one Poss filling station 1 has a descent that I am not to sure of this weather.We came up it on an Audax a few weeks ago and i really cannot remember what it was like to descend.42 miles with 2800 ft of up or
Filling station 2
only 37 miles with 2700 ft but a long long drag out of chepstow.
Thoughts welcome

The route does look fairly appalling for my current level of fitness. I'd be tempted to have a go just to see if I could do it.

Unfortunately I am working the whole weekend and can't do it.

With the way things are going with work, I may not be able to go out for a ride until Christmas. Can't even go for a ride mid-week as they have shipped me out to Milton Keynes for the week days now.

Have fun.

Has a decision been finalised on what route this is going to take No1 or No2?

could probably get a sneeky pass for a couple of hours

Seeing as route 1 is crossed out, I suspect route 2 could be the one. Smile
