Anyone doing the Great Weston Ride on Sunday?

I always enter this as it's a great little ride and route and the weather's usually sunny (maybe too sunny this year).

@Redvee - great result. You were about 10 minutes quicker than me (reminder: it's not a race) and I didn't do any extra except for riding a few miles to the start. Incidentally, I checked on Strava and that was my fifth time as well.

Finished in approx 3h.25m though Strava says longer cause I didn't stop the Garmin when I stopped. Had good legs all the way and had a good average spped for the ride too, got 'lost' riding home and ended up doing 100 miles on the day but did include bagging a couple of the latest Gromit trail sculptures on the ride back. Didn't ride Monday but could have if there was the need to.

Nice one. Good luck.

I think this'll be my fourth. I'll be aiming for lunch-time, but it's not a race (must keep repeating that to myself as I normally fall into over-taking mode and go much too quickly for my stamina and end up collapsing after a cider on the beach). The weather looks fantastic for today.

I'll almost certainly get caught up in it - I have done a couple times now!

Won't be riding it as such though, just happens to coincide largely with many of my usual cycle routes.
