Not riding. But marshalling on motorbike. What's your number? I'll give you a tow up Star Hill! At least you won't have ice and snow like last year. Tough climbs, but if your in with a bunch it goes quicker. Enjoy.

Some pics here from a few years ago. Will be snapping away this year too.

Well I can recommend anyone who likes a nice tough climbing sportive to do this one!

So well organised and well sign posted (apart from one junction where someone removed an arrow and about 50 of us ended up doing an extra 3 miles and another nasty climb)

Glad you enjoyed it Fromage. It is tough. Felt very guilty being on a motorbike. Numbers were too small to spot anyone really. Pics here.
