I've no idea about the course, only that it's the fastest available this year I think. Does it share any of the 100mi course? That was atrocious when I rode it due to weather though, I barely remember the road surface.
My plan is probably Breckland with the National as a backup event. I'm just trying to crack 300, I don't care about anything else. Probably should get out of my pants and on to a bike at some point. It's getting embarrassing that the missus is out riding and I'm sat at home.

Yes. The starting circuit begins with some slow wiggly single track roads onto the A11. The southern circuit includes the southern part of the 100 course (the bit between the Snetterton turn and the Caxton junction) but goes south from that down to near Thetford. The northern circuit is the 100 course with the bottom bit (between Caxton and Snett) chopped off. The finishing circuit is then a bogging slow slog along lots of twisty single carriageway roads, which I ended up doing for over two hours.

Just the National for me, I think. Have you done the D12/1 course?

Yeah, it clashes with the Breckland 12, but having done it last year and subjected myself to all that miserable bumping and thumping over the northern end of the A11 I'm happy to give it a pass for this year. Still considering doing the 12hr Nat Champs a couple of weeks later though if I can get a teeny weeny bit of support for the ride.
