By 7am as I was pulling back into the campsite I was thinking that we were going to have an early finish. Surely no one was going to open there curtains and think "Looks like a good day to go for a bike ride" But from 7.30am they surely did, 64 in total. Thanks to you all for making the effort, with a large percentage even opting for the long rouite ( special mention to the guys who came 140miles from Hull and stayed over at a local hotel on Saturday night )<br /><br />To all those who did go back to bed, I fully understand!<br /><br />I'd also like to thank the person who padlocked the gate on Saturday night between 8pm and 4pm, effectively locking us on the campsite. We'd hired the whole campsite and had keys to the gate. Somebody turned up and attached their own chain and lock, which was a bit of a suprise to me at 4am. I used the biggest lever in the back of the van (A Park Tool workstand ) to twist and break the chain. Realy can't understand why someone did it.<br /><br />Cheers<br />DeanThe Ride It!

Did the me......and today the weather was ... Grim!<br /><br />Did the medium course - very wet to start and the wind on the final 10k climb!<br /><br />Glad I got out of bed this morning and did the ride.
