Ball buster training

Guest

Hi everyone.

I'm planning on a long ride to get ready for the Lvis Ball Buster.

If I can get some company, I'm planning on catching the train down to Exeter from Bristol parkway at 7:55 arrives at 9:10.

From Exeter it will be a fairly flat ride through Taunton- Bridgwater - cheddar - Bristol.

Around 110 miles and atleast 4000ft of climbing. I will confirm a route this week.

Anyone in?

Sounds like a great idea. I plan on enjoying St Paddy day with some rugby but I would be up for more of these in the future.

Theres a lot to be said for catching the train somewhere and riding back it opens up new routes that would otherwise be to much.

Yeah no worries. When the weather gets better I can see quite a few of us doing train/cycle days

I'm a tentative. I have evening plans, so will see what the eventual route is and let you know whether it's gonna be possible

Yeah it will be quite a push for that time and the rugby is on.

I might postpone this ride till the following week when Steph can join us.

Good Friday!
