Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance C2C 2014

[Peteaud]

I've just cooked up some grub to take with me as IIRC the food stops don't include sandwiches and the like.
Cable tie or something to fix your number to your bike if you don't want to safety pin it to your clothes.
As mentioned above, sun cream and as many water bottles as you can carry if it's hot like today.
Cash to get some fish n chips and an ice cream at the finish!

That's about it, really. I live on the route and it's already been signposted. The marshals are brilliant, as well.

You live on the route
you have been cooking

great, we stop off at yours then

I will be on a black n white Cannondale with an orange Duff Beer top (or a blue Heinz beans top) but probably the duff.

Good idea on the BBQ,

There's been cakes at the Bishops Lydeard stop in the past, and loads of fruit at the the last one before W Bay.

Went walking on the Quantocks today - if weathers like that then great. Nice last Thursday too when I rode to Watchet and back using the C2C route from Kingston St Mary. Not impressed by the state of the roads though.

Serviced and washed the bike this morning so all ready for off.

WARNING

As it is sunny i will be wearing shorts.

Pasty white leg alert.

Good luck everyone, go easy on the 1st few miles.

Yes, the roads are shocking. Beware other riders who won't be expecting it and might not think to warn that they're swerving.

Don't forget the suncream!

Good luck for today, looks like the weather god is a cyclist.

 

[Peteaud]

Hope everyone had a great day, i certainly did.

Write up in rides when i get a chance.

 

[Davidc]

Great day, brilliant weather.

As ever I was seriously slow but made it nonetheless. The flapjack at Bishops Lydeard was amazing!
