Title: DIY 200 - Frankfurt, Germany - Oct. 21

I know this is a long shot, but some of you are properly bonkers, so let's see.  ;D

As some of you know, I'm in the process of moving from London to Frankfurt. Over there, you can ride your bike a long way too! As I want to keep my RRtY  alive, I'm currently planning the first DIY 200 for October. The fun will start on Oct. 21, 8.30am, in Kelsterbach, 10 km west of downtown Frankfurt. It's a 200 k route along the Rhine and across the Odenwald, so there will be a little bit of climbing. Here's a rough outline of the route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/25209647

I'll be riding with around half a dozen mates, many of them LEL finishers. We'll take it relatively easy, with two sit-down stops, so it should be sociable. I'll register the ride as a group DIY with Paul, so it will generate AUK points. If anyone fancies joining, give me a shout. Unfortunately, our guest room might already be booked, but I could try to find a you bed with some of the other riders.

I just looked at that route....have you not had enough of 100km flat legs yet?  ;D I'd love to come but I think it's going to have to wait a while, I have payback to do at home and that is my daughter birthday weekend.  :(

So which date in November works best for you then? I can't to Nov 4. And we can throw in more hills at will.
