Thanks for the message Rob - really looking forward to it now, having been somewhat bowled over by the response on Facebook.
If anyone would like to come and and support on the route then it would be very, very much appreciated, and if you want route and schedule details then see the Twitter link above which should both on already
The other rider who has submitted a notice and schedule is a chap called Ian To who is an ultracyclist who has raced in Croatia, Italy and the TCR
