As the 5th May is the cake ride and the Monday is a BANK HOLIDAY A lot of you will energy left over as the cake ride is only short and gentle and you will need to work off the calories. How about us having a go at this again but WITHOUT the rain. https://nbcc.forumotion.com/t779-four-ice-creams-and-a-cream-tea
As per last time we did this ride we will be starting from BW cycles near the Create Centre in Brizzle. Mr Mills of this parish has redrawn the 100 miler we did in the wet wet wet . This time it WILL be dry. http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2388736 If I remember we had a 09.00hr start to make sure we had a nice long day to take it steady.

Rock I would guess. Although last time we did this route there was a 5 hour sub zero monsoon which may be clouding my judgement

It would be a pleasure. Lets say we'll be leaving Costa at 0815 hrs.
