Finished my 200k leg of the Audax Club Hackney / Audax Club Bristol Challenge a few hours back. Started in pissing rain and thunder at Tower Bridge, ended in rain (but no thunder) at Clifton Suspension Bridge, via Virginia Water, Newbury, Marlborough, Chippenham and more Soreen than I want to think about. And a lovely atmospheric sunset amongst the leg-sapping hills of the A420.
Several of my ACH colleagues immediately turned round and headed back for the 400k version, so chapeau to them is all I can say! No doubt a full report will be along in due course
