45 miles is good.
The 1st 10 miles were on the road which with knobblies is still a challenge. Then the off road bits started. Then when back on the road it was up and down, then some tough off road sections. Finally a really fast down hill road section. A good mix

How about 24th although you might be pushing it with the missus with 3 weekends of playing?
When if not the 24th?

Top thread. Suits me as a car-less (not sure about the hiphen), VTR in bits, two-wheel are great sort of bloke.
Two contributions:
1) Anyone ridden in the IOM? Off for hols there in August. Sight seeing and riding, and it just so happens to be Manx GP practice week. I gather forest trails are a free for all, but not sure about the paths.
2) If anyone needs training sessions for an Ironman Tri, or a long sportive, I've got loads. All based on power output, but I could give a heart rate equivalent if needed.
