I'd like to lose some weight, so that is kind of incidental anyway. I'm not planning on doing any blistering times. I've ridden 65 miles in 3hrs 40 before on my mountain bike with the "knobblies" rather than slicks.....but that was some time ago. I'm just trying to make the experience pleasurable. I don't want to be hanging out of my ?rse (especially in Brighton) after 25 miles. I want to be fit enough to enjoy the day.

I have got another 52 miler lined up in July around the streets of London village, so all you London lot, keep an eye out for me. No pelting me with rotten tomatoes though.
