Sevenoaks Tour of Kent

[firemansimon]

Evening,

Just a couple of questions before I sign up to my first advent.

Doing the Tour of Kent on September 13th, But would like to know if any of you have completed it before if so are there changing rooms/showers, Is there plenty of parking available.

I think as it's my first I think it best to do the 80km version instead of 140.

Thanks
Simon

Changed my mind doing the 140k version. My boss, a collegue (crazy mare has just bought a 4k Pinarello) and a mate are all up for it too.

What?? and you have the nerve to call me a crazy fool? I am going to try NOT to finish in the bottom 20... thats my goal!

Well i commute 40 miles a day (admitedly not every day) with no probs so an extra 10 miles isnt really a challenge and I know if i did the 80 i would wish i did the 140!

The more I think about the 140 is looking the better option. Can't seem to find any info about parking/changing rooms etc, Or do you just turn up and go

Go on you know you want to do the 140! There are pics of a big field with parking for 600 cars here http://www.kentcyclosportive.co.uk/photos.htm not sure about changing rooms, is that not what bushes are for?
