Taxman has been consoled and I expect that there will probably be at least two groups - those that need to be back for the tennis and those that don't! The 8 o'clock start was timed to pick up as many of the Dome riders as possible for as long as possible. More than happy for anyone to start any other time as suits.
I'll meet the 7am starters near Granton and turn around at Kempton. Heading off to wildside next week and trying to recover from my epic two weeks of riding so I don't want to be out on the bike for to long.
