RideLondon-Surrey 100 (2014!!!) Anyone?

[Snail Bait]

I would like to do more training this year, whether I get a place or not, so if any of you are quite slow plodders living near SE18 and would like some company getting the miles in for whatever we all end up doing next year then please let me know. I did 7 hrs 48 this year and if I get a place would like to cut that down to 7 hrs or close to. I've struggled to find a cycling club near me that suits my speed and the times I'm available.

My name is in the hat for 2014, will be training for it whether I get a place or not as plan is to do JOGLE in June.

I didn't get a place last year hopefully I'll be successful this time. Although what has my occupation got to do with it??

I was wondering that too. My occupation wasn't listed .

Put my hat in the ring. Hoping for a call from Boris himself in February.

I'm a little worried I may have over estimated my abilities :s

Just put something posh sounding...Boris might think you've got a bit more cash to splash

How many days are you doing that over? Why not LEJOG?

My occupation wasn't listed either had to go with one that was the nearest! It would be interesting if to see if they do really pick your name out or have a noisy at your job first and decide from that!!!

I put myself down as " Chairman of a company" , I don't see why they should need to know what I do for a living, so I aint telling them.

When I registered for the Five Boro's Bike New York ride, it was done on a first come first served basis. It was sold out within 12 hours, 36,000 places.

I wonder why the RLS 100 is not done the same way.

Perhaps they think that, this way, they can get 70,000 onto bikes doing some early training and getting fitter, rather than just 20,000?!
