• Was it a challenge Mista Pastry? My boss lives near there, and has asked if i would be up for retracing sunday's route.....

    Hell yes. Check the route profile on the site. Look at that graph with its steep lines. IIRC there were two 25% gradients, and a few 17 percenters. Quite long as well - 1/4 of a mile. There was no way of actually riding up all of them unless your name's Cancellara and the Gruber Assist rumours are true.

    I'll probably stay in Stratford the night before Lee, otherwise i'd offer a lift. If you get the train though I'll meet you.

    First train arrives at 10:08 - Last registration is 10:00
