The big ride out

[MickeyBlueEyes]

What route you thinking of taking? I'd want to be riding with the wind all the way!

It's going to be 100 miles heading east turn round and head back.

 

[MickeyBlueEyes]

And pretty flat.

Yeah its pretty flat. That can also be a disadvantage though as there's no let up, no coasting down long gradients to rest the legs.

Just realised @MickeyBlueEyes , Myself, @CharlieB , @Mark Grant and @rb58 are also doing a 200+ ,miler on the night of the 24th. Starting from Doncaster at midnight and heading back to London. But I tell you what... we sure ain't going to be as quick as you....

Where do you think you'll be at 6-7am? Our paths could cross!

 

[MickeyBlueEyes]

What is the significance of 206 miles?

Really significant actually gets me back home! Stopping at 200 would give me a 6 mile walk and I don't fancy that much! Just messing fella. I wanted a 200+ ride and that's just what its come out to.

Best of luck, hope it cools down for you and looking forward to hearing all about it afterwards.

Paths?

Sounds like you will be leaving a vapour trail.

I would hazard a guess, Spalding MaccyD's for brekkie.
Here's a ridewithgps link that shows our route.

Lots of good luck wishes, thank you folks, gives me some extra determination.

Their brekkies, porridge and coffee are all pretty good and for us plodders all that's needed

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Good luck fella, sure you will do it.

My standard brekkie used to be 3 double sausage & egg muffin meals, all with oj, 3 extra hash browns, pancakes and syrup to finish. Could go that right now actually!
