100 mile sportive

[dubman]

Hi folks just signed myself up for the bike radar 100 mile sportive , Never done one before this is my first , what i would like to know are routes usually signed posted well on the day or do i need plenty of map planning ?

Yes, sportives are normally well signposted. Plus, seeing as there should be a fair number of entrants, there'll be a lot of people to follow.

In at the deep end then.

I'm doing the 100k - 'cos I'm not mental Also I don't want to leave Mrs C alone at Donnington with all those fit cyclists for too long.

The course is will be very well sign posted and marshalled.

As an aside, I did a 60 mile ride up to Donnington this morning and ran straight into what appeared to be a sportive at Diseworth, then by the time I got to Walton on the Wolds I got mixed up in a triathlon - it must be spring or something.
