You can pre-register now and we've got 20% off entries with code ROADCC

I have pre-registered, anyone else thinking of doing it?

 

[Spartak]

Yep, just pre registered ! Thanks cd365 for the heads up

I need a target having just picked up a new bike today. This could be just the ticket.

Is there a limit to entries or not?

 

[cd365]

10,000 I believe

I registered at the weekend too

I thought I'd start a new thread for folk who want to chat about this event, so it doesn't confuse with the Ride London thread.

Has anyone pre-registered, me and the missus have, it looks like it could be fun.

If you want to have a look at how the pros deal with the big climb ("The Tumble") don't forget that stage 3 of the Tour of Britain (Sept 9th) finishes at the top of this.

I think ITV have highlights.

Perfect excuse for a night out in Cardiff after to celebrate!

I was thinking of a long weekend or something and then I read a thread about routes around Snowdonia and though hmm, maybe take a trip to North Wales as well.

The tumble is one tough climb, its a climb that just keeps on taking and gives nothing in return.........its horrid
