Giant Causeway Coast Sportive 2016 - Sept 10

Anyone signing up for this sportive as it's fast approaching? From what I've read on here it's a well run event with good food stops.

Think I'll do the 126km option. Heard a few horror stories about the Torr Road so preparing myself for that pain and torture after 100km!

Fingers cross the weather behaves.

Ya. Signed up yesterday for the 182km. Really looking forward to it. Need to sort accommodation asap.

It's a 2.5 hour spin each way for me so it'll be a long day all in all but the scenery up there looks lovely. Need to ramp up my training now.

Signed up to the longer one. Looking forward to Torr Road after 75/80 miles.

Day for the 32 maybe.

Signed up for the 126km one. I checked out Torr Head on veloviewer and it's pretty daunting alright. But sure I'll give it a go anyway.

Getting close now ,about 10 of us taking part in this event kinda nervous about Torr but looking forward to it all the same.

Anybody looking for entries for this?
Two of us were due to head up but I got a knee injury 2 weeks which hasn't cleared up and we're not going now :mad:

I'll let the 2 entries go at a discount if anyone is interested.

Looking forward to the 182km route! G1032, wish I'd seen your post before I booked mine yesterday! Weather looks set to be good, trying to work out how to get to Ballycastle for 7am...
