Great news guys, the forecast is now for a south-easterly at 19 kph so basically a headwind. While these extended-range forecasts are pretty flakey the good thing is that it's looking like it will be nice and dry.ldrcycles wrote:Lol, well there's a first time for everything, and i would love to have a tailwind for the first time! Either that or you can all just suck wheel while i grovel and drool into the wind lol.
Hamster has Pierre in at the LBS getting a check-over, so it you see a fat, bald, old, red-faced and grumpy dude on a black Peugeot that'll be me.

You want a headwind on the way down and then a headwind on the way backComedian wrote:ExactlyCrawf wrote:I'm not that fussed about a headwind... just as long as it hangs around for the return leg!

I got my letter today which included by race number to attach to my bike.
Not sure if it mentioned it in the letter but the PDF which has details all about the ride is now uploaded I had been looking for something like this and it has a lot of useful information.
