Booked, gulp. This will be the longest ride I've ever done, BB200 is the closest...

I'm in. A few weeks to recover after the HT550 should be enough. Right?

I'm in again. :oops:

Don't worry Rich, no real hike-a-bike like on the BB200, one short really technical section about 300m long, a lot of up and down though :wink:

Will a 2017 Genesis Fortitude be suited? 650b+ but rolls fairly fast.

I have unfinished business with this after my ride ending crash last year. Very tempted to return but it's at a really bad time for me due to other plans.

Hmm... definitely needs considering.

Yes we need to beat it this year, but I can't go :-(

However we also need to beat Braunton and Jim wants to help us with that one.

Entered.

A blank calendar for 2017 was starting to annoy me. This should give me something to aim for/motivation.

Looks like I'm doing this. I may have to bring "The Overcompensator".

I'm regretting it already. lol
