Coo, this is a bit early, isn't it? Should I be looking at accomodation and suchlike?
There's never too early to get the cheap deals.
I'm paying £39.50 total for my two nights in the (Bristol Severn View) Travelodge. The Friday night is already up to £42 but rooms are available on the Sunday for £19.
Can't book the trains until mid-Feb-ish, but getting in early it should be as cheap as £10 each way (compared to a £49 off-peak return available on the day). One of the important bits is getting the bike reservation done.
Severn Across is a lovely ride. I'd be doing it again this year but I've run out of brownie points (I'm doing the Elenith the weekend before, followed by the BCM on the 16th and then a DIY400 on the 26th of May).
Also, there seem to be a lot more people signing up for the big rides this year although I have no proof that this is the case, it just looks that way.
