LCC News, they're going to have an elevated viewing area for the TdF prologue.
It'll be situated next to Hyde Park at Achilles Way.
I've signed up as a group, so can get 10 riders into this viewing area. All we have to do is join a group ride to the spot beforehand.
Now yes, you don't have to do this to view the prologue, and there will be lots of other places you can squeeze down the side of fences to get a viewing. But the idea of a decent view, not too crowded, elevated and at a key junction that you can see the racers go in both directions, with refreshments at hand... it's a winner in my eyes.
The 10 spots I've asked for are not just open to londonfgss.com members, bring anyone you want, but they have to ride there so clearly we're talking cyclists only.
The full details are on the LCC site.
If we decide not to use the LCC area, then cool I'll let go of the places by letting them know. But if we are using them, just whisper me how many people you can definitely bring... I'll probably take 3 spots, so that leaves 7 from the outset.
