Thank you to the two lovely people: beenbrun and readview offering to lend me a bike for this. Sadly I now have to be in London.
Hope you all have an incredible ride. I will be truly jealous.
If anyone has a friend in need of a ticket, I have one, but no idea of the transfer procedure.

Wow, you were quick ? or was it random?

TiLover - I hadn't received a rider number before I got in touch with the organisers about media accreditation - they sent mine straight out so must have missed me on the first email mailshot. - contact Caitlin Caitlin@eroicabritannia.co.uk and she will be able to confirm for you...

^^he was mega keen!

Just to be clear - are we expected to memorise the list so as to DAS everyone based on biek and jersey description?
