  • Do the courses tend to be well marshalled?

    Mostly, but the onus is on the rider to know and follow the course. The only place where people go wrong* on the H25/2 is getting off the A404 either too early (Hurley/Henley slip) or too late (heading off down the A404M) on the way out. If you have some sort of computer, have the distance on the display and tape pace notes to your stem, it's très Pro, particularly at this time of the year

    *unless they are a total fucking moron and go straight on at the turn roundabout, cough. In my defence, there was a version which turned at Woodley rather than Sonning.

  • The other thing to watch out for on the H25/2 is turning a roundabout too soon on the A4. There are two about a mile apart - you need to carry on to the second one.

    The Highways Authority no longer allows anyone other than approved contractors to put signs up on the A404, so don't rely on a sign telling you where to come off (there most likely will be a Marshall though).

    The cues are much more obvious at that end of the course, you just have to remember to turn just after the Pelican
