If you have done 25-30 miles, you'll cope OK it's a flattish ride and riding with others will give you a boost.

@LocalLad feel free to tag along with me if you don't mind been seen with an old codger will be in my cyclechat top

I had it in my head it was the end of June for the first one. We're away this week, and not sure I'm quite there yet fitness wise.

Good luck to everyone who is doing it! @the loafer, I doubt very much I'd have kept up with you - I'm a young codger!

 

[LocalLad]

Might go for the 70 in July though
