RideLondon-Surrey 100 (2014!!!) Anyone?

[SWSteve]

Mobile site says cancelled when I review my entry, looks like I'll be buying a race licence and try and make it

 

[JohnTCC]

I too failed to get a place

 

[vickster]

I think my postman may have drowned In the rain. Nothing yet

Edit: Paperwork arrived WOOT

 

[DiddlyDodds]

I don't have a smart phone, are they sending letters out to confirm places?
Based on it would be a right pig getting to London, with no where to stay, and not really bothered about doing it anyway, i hope this mental double bluff means i will get accepted.
If not i will stay up here in gods country (yes Lancashire not Yorkshire) and ride the hills.

 

[vickster]

Yes I got letter today

Paid up now

 

[vickster]

Yes she is thinking it would be a good idea.
What sort of time are you looking to do it in?

I optimistically guesstimated 6h49!

Got confirmation today that I've secured a place with Bowel Cancer UK. Just the small matter of getting the Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon and the London Marathon out of the way before I concentrate on training for Ride London.

Being a Sunday means I may have to pull out of my place...

 

[Nomadski]

Why @fabregas485 ? It was always a Sunday? Didn't you know before you applied?

 

[derrick]

My other half got her letter today.

 

[Tubbs]

The Mr and I both got in, absolutely thrilled. I did it last year on my own so really wanted us both to do it this year, even if not actually cycling together... he's much faster than me. Currently intending to train hard though so I can keep up so you never know.

 

[Tubbs]

I've got the Manchester marathon, the Manchester 10k, the Great Manchester Cycle and another Manchester 10k before the London 100.... if I get through those injury free I'll be very happy, but it's the training that's awkward. :-/

 

[philinmerthyr]

If I were to get in, is there any way I am able to change my predicted finish time by an hour. Otherwise it could get very close to me riding in the Broom Wagon

You don't need to worry. The course is quite quick and the crowd helps as well. I thought I'd be close to the limit but completed it in 7:48 so plenty of time.

I rode for for Beating Bowel Cancer last year. They are great people who are very supportive. Dani and Gemma are very supportive.
