The Worst Forecast. I hate weather forecasters - yesterday morning it was supposed to be a beautiful day and now... this. At least the swords spin last weekend was good practice I guess.

You know that we can't view your mailbox right?

So.. those who are going for the 100, what time are you going to start?

Yes, that's exactly why I posted that, so that you couldn't see it.

It was a weather forecast, is all.

Doing the 100 and thinking maybe of getting down there for around 9 or so. Maybe even a bit later. Anyone else?

going to start the 100 sometime after 8, but I'm in Greystones to start with, so its just a matter of rolling out of bed...

not once does it mention rain in that article so yes!

I'll be driving to Greystones to be there for the 0730 kickoff. If anyone wants a lift let me know. Will be driving from Booterstown but can pick up within a reasonable distance. I won't be using a bike rack so any takers will have to be content with placing their bike on top of mine in the Focus.

Sick I am missing this, Stuck in a hotel watching CNN business Traveller, instead of cycling out in the rain.

Believe it or not, I am not being sarcastic

I'm cycling out from Stillorgan and picking up the trail for the 100 in Kilmac. Plan to be there about 7:30.
L/S Boards jersey.

I'll be heading out about 6 along the N11 and through Bray, you should see a bright red Coifidis jersey speeding that way to make it on time

Can't do tomorrow so did a good chunk of the route today - in fairness, it already looks like the organisers have listened to last years complaints - the route marking is much better and every confusing junction is marked on the road and with lots of upright signs too. Also , they have put up distance markers every 10K to mark your progress. I just hope they have also sorted out the unnecessary queuing too.
The roads I travelled are pretty good apart from the road to Glencree via Crone woods which is a bit uneven in stretches and the turn off the N81 after Holywood for a few Km.
Also - there is a sign warning of potholes at the top of the Shay Eliot - don't let this slow you down , the vast majority of the descent is excellent . There is a couple at the bottom after (almost on) the black and amber marked right hand bend, then its quite bad at the very end before you hit the rathdrum road.

Hi Guys
I'm just about to hit the scratcher but the wife has informed me that she wants to head up to Donard tomorrow with my son to meet up with me and cheer me on.
Does anyone know how far Donard is from Greystones so I can estimate the time I'll be there at ?
Thanks

Raam

googlemaps should help you out there

Blowfish

I worked it out earlier at somewhere around 80-85k.

Thanks Raam. I was just heading off to bed and was hoping that someone would know off the top of their head.

Just as Blowfish did .... thanks Blowfish, much appreciated.

Best of luck to everyone tomorrow

Good night

Raam

No worries, have fun tomorrow.

Raam A Belgian pro in San Marco kit who was expecting warmer weather and myself decided it was too cold and left down the N81. Got a nice little training spin in, wore my fred-tastic kit and still had enough in the legs after yesterday which suprised me.

Weather seems to be picking up now so hopefully all you guys get a good day. It was really miserable going over the Sally Gap, I'm very much a fair weather cyclist.

Looked like the organization jumped up a few notches after last year, more marshalls about, motorbikes, support vehicles (I think).
