Ditto. B2GC11-115. Riding back is the plan. Just got to spend the next three months training and getting my fitness back. And dropping the extra 7 kilos I'm carrying just now. I have to outrun Comedian, just this once...pumapants wrote:Registration done, number B2GC11-153. Anybody riding back?

That sounds like a good idea. I'll be in it. We could be the "Tight Arses" or maybe "Frugal" sounds more like a pro team.Yongkun wrote:Anybody keen to form a team? a few of us here, planning to join/form a team, save $10 from 75 to 65 team participation.

Get her to recruit a friend to ride with her - that way you get to both ride the course at your own paceldrcycles wrote:I'll be doing it with my girlfriend, i've managed to convince her to have this as a fitness goal for the year. I really want to do it on my own sometime and really smash it (first and last time i did it was 2008 with my MUCH slower brother- attempted it last year with my girlfriend but her bike had a terminal mechanical after only 12k, i wasn't going to carry on to the finish and leave her to the mercy of the sag wagon).
