The 'Ride London 100' accepted/rejected thread
Discussion
I've got a dilemma, I am already in via a charity as I had a place offered to me in autumn by thrm, however, I would rather do it myself via the ballot.
To secure my place via the charity officially I need to pay them the £50 by Feb 18, else my low sponsorship total increases. (Although I can still pay them after that date and keep my allocated space). However I am loathe to do that if I find out I am successful in the actual ballot.
Therefore I hope I find out about the Ballot prior to the 18th February so I can make a decision based on fact!

I think early feb would probably denote something some time prior to the 18th.To secure my place via the charity officially I need to pay them the £50 by Feb 18, else my low sponsorship total increases.

I don't mind too much. I rode the route last year by myself on open roads and had a good time doing that. Hopefully I might be able to get a place through working with a couple of cycle journalists who said to give them a shout if I didn't get through, so I might try that.
Luckily I entered the tour of Cambridgeshire so I'll have one closed road event to do.

Funnily enough 1/2 of me is glad I didn't get in as well. I was hoping to do some of the ride with Velocio Sram, but this year the 100 clashes with a UCI world cup in Germany so they'll be there.Luckily I entered the tour of Cambridgeshire so I'll have one closed road event to do.
I'll look at Tour of Cambs on Friday when I get paid.
2013 Cancelled - applied from my address in London.
2014 Cancelled - applied from my address in London.
2015 Approved! - applied from my folks' address up north.
Probably made no difference and I'm getting all tin foil hat about it but there we are.
Need to up the mileage now.
