so... thinking about a Audax ride will my bike be upto it ?

I saw several PBP riders on hybrids. One was on a Brompton.

You're fine.

Re. Wiggy 200 and 300 they tend to be April / May.

Having just checked there's no York-based events up on Audax UK's events list yet, but there will be.

I'm after another SR medal in 2016 so will pick up a 200 or 300 from York to go with the 400 and 600 I've scheduled.

Thanks ill keep a look out, also willing to travel to your neck of the wood's if there is any ride's coming up?

Looks good to me.

As long as bike and rider are road worthy all should be fine.

And enjoy yourself

That's an easy start then; Season of the Mists / Mellow Fruitfulness tomorrow. Plus lots of rides by the same organiser. I did the E&W Coasts 600 which was really good.

If you look at this year's rides many were early so they could be used as PBP qualifiers. 2016 should be more spaced out.

Enjoy it if your doing it

@Jamieyorky - unfortunately I can't. I'm at the BMX velodrome with my youngest (and hopefully me if I can get a place)

Such a good choice of words. Describes most riders at the end of distances longer than 300km.

(eg at the end of a 300k this year, the organiser drove me home, because I tried to get back on my bike for the ride home, and forgot I had to lift my leg before swinging it over the saddle)
