Stop press! A 400 has been added to the list: https://www.audax.uk/event-details/11319-summertime_blues

Ride a 400 or attend Mum's 80th birthday celebration ?   Let me take it away and think about it.

Suggest a weekend in York and treat her to the Ghost Tour?

Technically the 'do' starts late lunch on Sunday.   It's theoretically possible to get round and there in time but I suspect I would be lousy company.

I particularly like the 1100 start time for the 400. 

I used to favour an evening start time to get the night bit out the way while fresh but have come round to the view that late morning is the best (allows a full nights sleep pre event and leaves lots of time on day 2 to finish).

I can't promise I'll run it another year, but your mam's only 80 once! Our mam wanted to go out dancing for her 80th (not ballroom, she wanted to jive), I wouldn't have missed it for anything.

One of my favourite 400s was Aidan's Hot Trod, I've nicked the format, an 11 am start and a possible sleep stop at 280 km.

If it was properly X-rated, I'd have gone for an evening start just to make it easy for me.  This works too!
