Well, probably.  I haven't entered, but I have emailed the organiser.  Am riding my first 200 since last april on the saturday before so we'll have to see what state I'm in.  ;)

I'll be there - did it a couple of years ago on the old route and really enjoyed it.

Please don’t ask me questions cos I don't know what to say - Wreckless Eric - 1978

And I should be there as long as it is a bit dryer than forecast but I make it a rule not to ride if it is raining at the start following a very miserable over the malverns some years ago.   Most likely on a blue Racelight with saddlebag festooned with lights but there is a small chance it will be the trike.

Hoping to feel enthusiastic enough at 5am or so.

Looks like I'll be on a wet red Thorn (festooned with computers).

I'm bailing.  I think I need a lie-in after the 5am start for todays 200k.

I like the revised route. A good day out .

First 'proper' ride since September so feeling it a bit.

Due to do the Chippenham Flapjack next Sunday.

I like the revised route.

Me too! And the first-class organisation and FOOD! And the surprisingly dry and gentle weather. The headwind disappeared for the ride home...  amazing.

Glad to see fungus, and wellard (thriving on Fixed). Missed other forumites, but lots of good company amongst the general commotion and buzz - especially welcome as my previous Calendar Event was right back in May (unless a Dinner Dart is "Calendar").

Thanks all, especially the superb Organising Team!

Due to do the Chippenham Flapjack next Sunday.

Same here, with my sister who dabbles with Audax sometimes. Our aims will be to catch up with at least one other rider (it has happened before, so it IS possible), and to put on less than 5kg each.

I intend to do the flap jack, but ride from home and turn it into a 200k

Very nice weather again, good organisation & route.  Nice to see Tony H at the finish as well.  My only whinge is the pub control charging £6 for a measly portion of pasta.
