bongo,
I will be riding for such an honorable cause, just not sure if I go the full 100+ or half ride!!
Reason being I am past 50 and a little chunky plus I have noted there is no mountain goat in my legs yet...

Looks like a good ride, think I'll be jumping onboard too. Gonna be a huge week though as I plan on riding out to watch every stage of the tour plus the mutual community ride on friday.
