  • velocity boy 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.

    Nope, right thread... you're just confusing me Brick.

    I group registered 10 spots, and need to confirm them. As mentioned in the quoted bit, we need to be as a group and join one of the rides in. That's the only way to get to the viewing platform as it's inside the TdF route and is part of the cordoned off viewing areas set aside for sponsors, and other organisations.

    So, we all took places earlier, now I have been emailed to confirm the details... so I need to provide them with a list of 10 names as well as the ride we'll be joining.
