Sounds like a bargain! Unfortunately I'll be down in Wales but looks like a great ride. Great cause too.

Put your race wheels in, it was a bit brisk last year.

Phil, would you like a lift over to Garforth ?, i have a spare rack on the car roof

Tempting, and very much appreciated, but... Was aiming to ride over and back, since the event itself is just under 50 miles, to make a proper day of it. Since I'm doing the steady version rather than the racing version I don't need to worry about saving me legs!

With a 10:45 start for the moderately lazy and allowing time to sign on, how about 9:00 sharp departure from the Millennium Bridge?

I guess the direction will be Bishopthorpe, Acaster, Bolton Percy, so I will be waiting opposite the Post Office in Bishopthorpe.

For anyone else that would like to join us, we are doing the steady ride and sign on the day is available, and would take a bit of pressure off Kev, all welcome.
