Yeah never again. But was really good test for me, with how savage it was.
Reminded me of the concrete slabs they use across the Po valley in Italy, as brutal as that.At least 3 times I was sure I'd punctured and was just praying no, especially in the last 30min.
Also @umop3pisdn informed me the E2/100 is now all motorway! No single carrigeway. So get your entries in, going to be fast! Closes tomorrow I think.

I've entered that already - it made more sense than waiting until the end of the year for the A100. I'm off the bike at the moment though so I'm worried it'll end up being a pile of shit ride, assuming I get a ride.

What hydration did you use for the 100?
Did you have a bladder or bottles? Any helper doing handups?
Tempted to try one of those skinsuit bladders - not that I need my beer gut enhanced. -

Underneath the tarmac, it is concrete slabs, that's why the ruts run across the road at regular intervals. The tarmac sinks into the expansion joints between the slabs.

Bugger off and go do the Nationals, it's a faster course anyway, with my qualifying time I'm on a hope and prayer of getting a start - my better halves birthday and an understandable veto meant I did 4 hours on the turbo yesterday to fit with my plan of doing the 100!

I've ridden two 12s, few 100s, couple of 50s and 25s and spent hours riding up and down in training. Now you know why I use tractor tyres.
I'm not going back there though, I'm done with that road.
