Ride 100 London Ballot

[jdtate101]

Anyone enter and get a place.....I didn't get a slot unfortunately . Would have loved to do the whole closed road thing in London and give it a fill gas sprint up the Mall at the end, but alas it's not to be (this year).

Sing out if you got a place.......... (and I might just track you down and steal your slot LOL)

Me neither

But still taking part on Saturday tho on the 8 mile closed road section.

If I was local, I'd just join in anyway a touch further down from the start line, who's gonna know? But as I'm not I won't bother, there's always next year...

I entered but haven't heard anything. Did you get an email?

 

[philinmerthyr]

Just logged in and my application is cancelled so I didn't get a ballot place.

I will be riding it though as I've been offered a charity place from Beating Bowelcancer. I need to raise £500 but that won't be a problem.

It should be a great weekend.

I had forgotten all about this, I know I put my name down for the Ballott. Will they contact folk if they are successful?

I've just been on the website, there seems to be four events, FreeCycle, Grand Pix, London-Surrey and the London -Surrey classic.

I'm a bit confused, which event is the ballott one? I know it's not the grand prix, not sure about the others!

Any clues?

The RideLondon 100. Freecycle is, er, free (relaunch of the Freewheel/Skyride), GP & Classic are the pro events.

Thanks for that, I followed through the system, once I remembered what my log in details are, I did not get a cancelled notification and have paid the registration fee. I did the same for the enemy, not really sure whether she was registered or not, I just guessed her log in details based on what she usually uses to log into sites and managed to pay for her too.

BUT I got this email.

"This is to confirm that we have received an update to your registration for the

within seven days.

This message does not confirm or refute the entry does it?

 

[EltonFrog]

Update: I telephoned the help-desk, apparently we are both in London-Ride 100.

How exciting! That's the New York Five Boro' and the London-Ride 100 we are doing this year!

That's my understanding, yes.

Excellent -

Just received a magazine and acceptance form in the post! I'm in so now the hard part starts!

Training, training and more training, particularly on those pesky hills. Still I reckon I have enough time to get sufficiently fit. I'll probably look at doing it for a charity, MIND, spirings to mind (sorry!) as my youngest kid has had some issues and that'll give me even more motivation.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm just off out for a few miles.........

 

[EltonFrog]

By happy coincidence I have just received by post our provisional confirmation of the London bike ride subject to payment. So that’s that then.Sorted.Bosh.Tuesday.

 

[Norry1]

I've just got the Acceptance magazine

That makes up for not getting through the Fred Whitton ballot
