Sorry if this is a repeat - I thought I saw something before and couldn't then find it.

Anyone doing it?
I am. As a 100Kg+ noob, it's going to take a bit of effort to get fit enough to do it, but there's the challenge.
I managed Manchester to London in 24hrs and I was 98Kg, so with a bit of effort you will fine I am. As a 100Kg+ noob, it's going to take a bit of effort to get fit enough to do it, but there's the challenge.
I am also contanplating the L2B off road ride.
I'm contemplating it now I've seen this thread! Don't think I'll have anyone available to do it with me, so getting a group together on here could be an idea?
Being T1 diabetic, I periodically have to monitor my glucose levels when out on a ride, so riding with at least one person is a good idea, just in case I run into issues. Plus it's better than doing it on my own from purely a social aspect!

Off road? Chapeau.
I had a look at the route map, it's not really properly 'off road' for the most part. I won't be an official rider either, it booked out months ago. If I do it, I'll aim to lag behind the majority of the riders by about 10 minutes. Then I'll go left towards Littlehampton when they go right to Brighton. I'll donate 40 odd quid to the BHF, seems rude not to.Gassing Station | Pedal Powered | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
