My danger with repeating rides is that I'd be more likely to give in as I've already done it. Mind you, I do love rides like:-
The Elenith
Bryan Chapman Memorial
The various Henham/Ugley 200s (covers lots of old cycling roads of my yoof)
PBP would be, I hope, a level above this and something I can go back to again and again trying to ride it in different ways and on different bikes. I couldn't justify the time away this year, but I can work it into a reasonable family holiday in 2019.
Shorter and different events for next year (Marathon/24TT/Ironman/etc) with hopefully a return to LEL in 2017; that should be a whole lot different to LEL'09.
