Managed to get a ticket just now with a bike res. for £20 on a 13:57 train outta Hull. That should avoid any problems.

I'm hoping to do it, but not sure if my fitness levels are high enough Longest ride I've done this year is about 35 miles, so I'd like to get a longer ride in before committing to do this.
But regardless of whether I'm riding or not, I can offer free camping near Hornsea. Its about 16 miles from Hull if anyone is interested

It is a 35 mile ride.

Followed by another one. With tea, sandwiches and cake in between. Do not doubt the restorative power of a cuppa.

Don't underestimate how much riding in a group helps as well

 

[Soltydog]

And the first 50 miles of this ride are the flattest you'll ever come across.

My 35 miles were on a similar terrain I've to do more miles than 35 to get to any hills

I like you have not done a ride of this length for some time but with a group of people its surprising how much will power you can muster.... I am looking forward to immensely but I am a little crazy

 

[Moodyman]

I'm in DZ. I also intend to ride back to York.

Even better, an opportunity to make your first ton...

 

[ComedyPilot]

If I can ride 35 miles, drink tea and eat cake, and ride another 35 miles, then anyone can.

 

[ComedyPilot]

Just do it @Soltydog if nothing else we can give the TECs a busy night.

It'll be my first ton for a year or so, but it wont all be in the same day, so does that count?? 2-3 years ago I was regularly doing ton rides, but having a few months off last year due to a back injury, I've not built my fitness back up anywhere near previous levels

It's a 24 hour period, so yes....

It might be longer than 24 hours before I get back home if I'm struggling
