I've been in the dynohub camp for virtually every audax I've ever ridden (and was using one before I rode my first 200k).

I'm also going to try new shorts out on this ride.

On LEL I tried a new saddle.

Living live on the edge.

I remember in 2007 catching you up because part of your drive train had to be rebuilt in Northern France during the event
Happy days
TBF to you you waited for me while I had a 10 minute kip on a haystack in the rain

You'll note I've not ridden PBP with gears since.  :hand: Cable snapped inside the shifter.

You were really suffering with the dozies. I recall a moto marshall stopping to see if you were ok. You weren't very coherent, I tried to explain you were tired and we'd get some kip. Of course I probably was not coherent either but he left us to get on with it. I lay on the verge but couldn't sleep. I could hear snoring from the haystack. I didn't sleep at all that night (the last).

It is, in many terms a race after all, finish times are recorded...

And you get issued with a number!
