Sorry we didn't get a chance to chat and sorry to hear you weren't feeling great. I was on the ISEN.
The crappy rain for the first 100km surely didn't make it easy to get going. Within the group I was riding 2 of them dropped out in Gala after 300 on the return leg from Alston. I knew if I stopped here for kip in my van I'd probably pack it in too as rain was only scheduled to get worse. So I pushed onto Johnstonebridge where I rested for a couple hours. Rain cleared up in the morning and I managed to drag myself around for a 9pm finish. Getting rather close to maximum value.
Cool. Remembered Mrs TSK also from the earlier Galashiels 400 finishing at McD after me. Wish I’d had the Lauf fork for the gravel sections of that one.

What was Mrs. TSK riding?
