This was a day which started dull and above zero but ended bright and below zero due to an east wind. A week without rain left the course dry with its potholes and mud clearly visible so perfect for this event.
Most of the 134 riders got away on time whilst others suffered train delays or punctures and started up to 20 minutes late. GD came home in his usual 1:50 followed by a couple more in 2 hours with the rest spread over two more hours. Five punctures and a visit to Peaslake (not on route) topped the tales of woe but most enjoyed it (so they told me).
