Hi banjo,

I have entered along with a mate, its all your fault, lol....

 

[Banjo]

I thought it was you who suggested it first

I havent ridden a single mile for about 3 weeks due to flue followed by snow and ice ,still got a lingering chesty cough thats not helping.I think i have a lot of work to do to get fit enough by june.

I ticked the box for the 200km gran fondo route but they allow you to opt to do the shorter medio route if you want to on the day.Hopefully I will do the 200 but only if I feel up for it.

lol, it was reading about your exploits that did it... so there

The only cycling I have done in a couple of months, is on the turbo trainer, an 1hr at a time 2/3 times a week. Highly sophisticated work out. I try and cycle above 90rpms averaging 13mph.. Had a go at some specific workouts, they knackered me. Obviously no good...

I looked for the box to tick that told them that I may change the distance on the day, couldn`t see it so went for the 200, it made me feel good...120 will be for me on the day.

 

[Banjo]

The rumours were right. All 4000 places sold out in a day. I cant see these sportive thingies becoming popular can you?
