    Signed up.

    A good day out followed by a nice bit of grub outside straw hall and usually a sneaky pint or 2😀

    have heard good things about this - and my dad used to do a lot of fundraising for the hospice, so it's a cause i can get behind - but i will be attending a wedding in venice on that day.

    I've my ticket booked. Should be a handy enough sportive and the starting point is near home for me. Hopefully the weather is ok.

    I've done it, ended up with the racing group by accident. Hung on for as long as possible and trundled home.


    I'd be there but I'm working.

    The pizza was lovely! The accompanying pints of Guinness were even better.
