Benjamin Allens Summer outing

(1/15) > >>

BlackSheep:
Event just about full.

Any last minute info for riders will be posted here.

And if any entrants have any queries, please ask here or via the FB group.

BlackSheep:
The start hall at Bushley will be open on Friday from 20.00hrs. Bring along your own air bed, sleeping bag . . . .

The food at Wigmore control will be vegan freindly, if anyone has specific dietary requirements - please contact me direct on the email you received ride info on.

We have limited space to transport provisions and various other bits of equipment. It is preferable and an advantage to you, if you have all you need to stay safe with you on the bike. It is preferable from the organiser's point of view, as history shows that despite the best efforts - items have gone missing. For you, it is an advantage to have spare/extra clothing with you should the weather suddenly dictate you need it. To that end, if you must have a drop bag, the only bags transported to Wigmore will be typically be a cycling musette which is typically 30 to 35 cm square with draw string top, with any contents being inside a polythene bag. And only soft clothing inside - So no shoes, liquids, gels etc. Any bags too heavy or large will remain at Bushley. All reasonable care will be taken with drop bags, but responsibility of them lies with the owner and not the event support team.

2). GLOUCESTER DOCKS DIVERT. Route sheet and GPS patch have been uploaded on to the event web page. Please download and use from Shepherd's Patch  control. Please note, both now follow A38 all the way to Tewkesbury - there's now  a possible night time closure along B4213 (that was previously along A38).

Thanks, they keep you on your toes as an organiser!

Have fun everyone! (this was my 1st choice 600 for 2019 until my season suffered irritating sub-optimal adjustment)

Forecast even looks above-acceptable  :thumbsup:

It looks a great route; BS always puts on a good show, and somehow recruits nothing but the best of helpers to ease you all through your weekend awheel!
