2011-04-16 Sat 9pm - London Marathon Ride

I think your nuts for considering it.

And if you push it earlier you just end up with a ride that still isn't the closed-road marathon ride, it's just a freaking early hour of the morning ride... in which case doesn't the night before, a beer and a night's sleep sound more appealing?

Still, your choice.

Crazy? probably yes, but for me early mornings > late evenings.

I might do both rides, the evening one, and the morning one, but I really want to get that early morning atmosphere.

And don't worry, I'm not going to get in trouble with the police, if they do close early I will just go round it like Sumo says, or leave the course if they ask me to.
