Richmond 5 Dales Sportif, Saturday

[Rob]

There appears to be 8 of us signed up for this. There's still plenty of spare places if anyone else interested - see the Richmond CC website.

After the strong individual performances in the Etap du Dales last w/e maybe everyone's ready to do this as a clubrun..... If so I'd suggest the following itinery:

Get there in time to sign on for a 0900 start
One quick sit down cafe stop in Hawes
Pace it to get round in under 8 hours, which basically means averaging about 14mph on the road - maybe able to get round somewhat quicker - but see how it goes.

What do you all think?

Can't offer a lift as car full.

Looking foward the The Stang - not ridden it for about 10 years!

[Arthur]

I was aiming to ride it as a clubrun but I'm heading away on a course now so can't ride.

[mal]

I'd like to do it but I'm not sure I can make that amount of time available on Saturday. If I can be there it'll be a challenge for you to get me round and for me not to slow you down; if I can't I hope all goes well for you.

I was trying for a 'gold' time so might start earlier than 9.00, altough if anyone whats a lift let me know.

Rob,

I would like to come along but need to check how keen are you on keeping to schedule?This would be my first long ride since November and whilst I am happy I can do the ride I am not sure of my pace.

If anyone as a spare seat I would like a lift out

Decided to do the 100 also, So its still planned to be a 9am start at Richmond School for all who wish to do the club run together ?

[mal]

I can get to this one now and will have to enter on the day as snail mail is probabaly too late - is the 9.00 am set off still definite? I can only access the forum up to Friday lunchtime so info before then will be much appreciated.

No howls of protest towards the proposed plan, so suggest we take it as definite. Let's work on an 0900 actual start, which means getting there before then to sign on and even earlier for anyone who's actually got to enter.....

See you in sunny Richmond

I also will be there, will enter the 100 and see how I go. Is parking at the school itself or is there an event carpark close by.

Don't know about the parking.

Has anybody noticed the picture of our Kit (in both sences of the word) on their homepage?

[stevesavage]

I noticed that too Rob - maybe we should be getting royalties!

According to the rider info for the Premier Calender event on the following day which starts at the same place there is "extensive parking"

I see Kit has entered - good luck!
