I've looked at eleventy pages and gigabytes of pretty graphics - including pages of FAQ - and STILL no price stated!

So I'm guessing that I can't afford it, as the old saying goes ...


yup, DIY looks the best option!

EDIT: I actually thought it's a very pretty website. Useless for finding any information, but hey ...

I think the web designer have never ridden a bicycle for any significant distance! The web site says that the riders are "self-supported", but on all the photos, all you see is cyclists riding racing machines, with only one bidon, no luggage, and visibly no tool to fix even just a puncture.

For a good view of Alpacas you could have done the Boulters Bash event out of Maidenhead last Sunday. You'll be able to sign up to next year's epic ride soon.
Events I am running: 5th September 2021, the unseasonal Wellesden Reliability; HOPEFULLY Early April 2022, 3 Down London - New Forest 300K Audax;
