Ha, thanks! I'll try and have something left for the big hill. Think I'll set up Garmin to remind me to drink/eat as I'm not great at staying on top of things.
ElGonzo-
What I really remember from last time I did it, which was I think 2014,is that it was a warm night, and I was drinking lots. I was only doing liquid food as I was getting ready for the 24. Then, around midnight, it cooled down, and I slowed down, and suddenly I needed to piss about 12 times in an hour and a half! I've had the same thing in the 24 before, basically need to drink a lot less at night than in the day, and hard to get it right when to reduce amount.
@hippy did you find this was a thing on 24s?

Not riding this year but I've done it a couple of times before, sometimes as a final shakedown before a big event.
It's a good event. Main thing I remember is that it is very fast out, flat and usually a tailwind, but much slower back, and the biggest hill is right at the end.
Good luck!
