Does one need mudguards

no

Does one need mudguards for this particular audax?

oh, I see. er.. no. It doesn't say on the page, so no. Despite that I'll be on my bike which has got them

 

[marinyork]

Good .

 

[RedBike]

Not to put you are but there are a few cracking climbs on the route.

The road from Thorncliff is a real stinker too.

 

[marinyork]

Well I've done 7000ft over similar distances. I reckon I should make it ahead of the 12.5kph time, but by how much would be hard to say.

 

[PaulB]

no it isn't! Check again! Can't get out of it that easily!

Go on, make a liar out of me for one day! (I meant same weekend as there's no way I'm doing both; who do you think I am, Longers?)

 

[SilverSurfer]

Is there anything on this ride that would be too much for a reasonably fit 13 stone bloke with a 34 x 25 d'ya rackon?

 

[longers]

No.

 

[SilverSurfer]

Right then, I'll see you there - you'd better not be fibbing!

 

[longers]

*bump*

Who's going? I'm aiming to get there early enough to take advantage of the pre ride breakfast.

 

[bonj2]

yeah i'm hoping to make it, pre-ride breakfast sounds good.

 

[longers]

Right then, I'll see you there - you'd better not be fibbing!

How was it for you?

Nice day for it
