They have cycling races from time to time, so worth checking local event listings.

In fact, one on 8th April.

It’s something I’d like to do but will never be able to justify it. I can drive to Scotland or for the same distance be in the south of France, Monaco, Italy and so on I know what wins it for me!

No, you haven't Adam. There's likely to be two meeting points TBA, as we've got guys coming from all over.
