2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 30, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hi Just noting the staggered start. It would be nice if we set off together. Any views on the matter? I was thinking 9am seems civilised. Also, is this event marshalled and sign posted? Cheers Darryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted April 30, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Daryll Event well marshalled 9.30 is even more civilised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 30, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 DaryllEvent well marshalled 9.30 is even more civilised OK, but the suggested times on the website say that those hoping to average more than 18mph should set off at 9.20. I don't think I'm hoping to go that quick. I wouldn't want to set off last cos then you've only got whoever you start with for help! just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I agree with Mark's suggested start time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul C Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Chung and I expect to arrive at 8:25 so would set off at 08:45 - 9:00 to get bit off a head start on the faster boys. About same as I did last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin McPhee Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 9 sounds fine to me but will go with consensus Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Tom Hill Posted April 30, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Ok guys How long will the journey take. Then I can back calculate to pickup times for Charlie and Ian. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About same as I did last year. This sounds good for me and Jody. We've got the 15-16 mph groups leaving between 8.50-9.10 so can fit in somewhere and hopefully all group together a wee bit down the road?

2023 Subscriptions ginty001 Posted May 1, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Tom, Probably in the region of 1hr 45, but i'd give it 2 hours to be safe... Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted May 5, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Well done All. What a cracking day out. Proud to be wearing the colours today:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yep. A puncture, a pinched tube when replacing it & a lost contact lens but Still a great day. Food was magic too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Fantastic day (for the skinnies!!!!) . Joking aside, it was indeed a great day out. Weather was relatively kind - dry with light winds albeit a bit chilly at the roll out this morning and plenty of vertical bits. Superb efforts all round, even though the skinnies took the honours for the day, the others were not far behind truth be told. A good number of sub 6 hour centuries Without doubt the Mighty Joansin were a presence today passing most riders who started in front of us and ours being the wheels of choice to hang onto. Bunch of guys I spoke to at lunch, who had rode in our slipstream for 20+ miles or so, seemed suitably impressed with our "well oiled bunch", their words not mine. Well done everyone, Chapeau one and all. Get wired into the beer or wine this evening you deserve it. Not you Macbagel, you're on duty Aussie Al, get off the skippy burgers! Looking good today that man. Best laugh of the day, apart from ripping into MacBagel, was Flashdance McPhee's Haute Couture statement. Squire Christie has his work cut out surpassing this one!!!! Sorry Colin but it would be rude not to Hope you all got home safely and Bill T hope your bumps and bruises are ok, look after yourself!!
