Interesting suggestion. However, I note the TNR aims include 'To sleep outdoors wherever possible.' @Cycliste likes beds. And roofs. Quite a lot. Unfortunately.

Isn't the Torino-Nice gravel/dirt rather than the Three Peaks which is road?

Then again, not sleeping outside you may as well just tour. Your first race should expose you to the full horrors of bivvying. I mean, it's only a few days, it's not like your skin even merges with your lycra by then.

It's 50/50 but can be done all on tarmac, missing out on the mist glorious bits

Edit: then you have to drop the word "Rally" in it though

That's what I said. Didn't work. @Cycliste is invoking @skinny as a precedent for not bivying.
