Agreed, although a lot of riders enter to race.

Owenski, don't worry about it being a race, it isn't,you can take it at your own pace. So at the food stops and hydrate, before you get hungry and thirsty.

Take it at your own pace & follow groups at your level and you'll finish it no problem.

They'll be riders of all abilities there

This is still taking entries for this year if anyone fancies it. Hopefully I'll be better prepared this year.

I think Essex Dave entered last year but couldn't do it for some reason. It will be a leg breaker!
