Sportive

Number 1 in series of 100 mile road rides organised by a far-flung group of riding buddies and around where their disparate homes lie in Sussex, the Cotswolds, Chilterns and various spots in The North.

Each designed to be lumpy. With Cake.

The first round is a big clockwise loop taking in the South Downs and The Weald to celebrate the changing of the clocks and all the promise of the extended daylight hours to come that brings.

Yes indeed -  come easter monday we'll be lining up for a bit of early season sportive action, and we'll be bringing the camera to record it all for posterity, including the bits where we fall in a hedge or get swept up by the broom wagon, possibly. Certainly the bits where we clean the tea stop out of cake.

weather permitting we'll be the guys in the road.cc jerseys so come say hello!

I think there are still places left at http://www.cotswoldspringclassic.co.uk/ if you haven't made plans for your bank holiday yet
