England : Lancashire Lancashire Loop Sunday 30th Sep

Anyone going? I'm going for the 100 mile route. Assuming i'm not blown off / drowned by the weather. It'll be my first century so fingers crossed.

I'm not, but it is a nice route - I've ridden 95% of it at one time or another. Good luck with the weather because some parts of the route are high up and exposed!

Cheers Colin. Hoping the weather isn't as bad as forecast.

I'm down for the 18 mile loop I know its not much, but bearing in mind I will have been cycling for exactly 1 month as of tomorrow (30th September 2012) starting off as an overweight very unfit lump on 31st August 2012 who struggled to do 5 miles without stopping, I'm well pleased...not that I've changed that much

Assuming I finish the event it will be 7 miles more than my longest ride so farand my first ever sportive so I can see what's what ready for next year

On the plus side, I entered the event 2 weeks ago and set a target to raise £150.00 for Mediequip4kids...to date I have managed £200.00 so I am especially proud of that

 

[pally83]

That's pretty sound progress. Good luck.

Thanks mate :-)

I'm trying not to do too much too soon so hopefully I'll avoid injuries.
