I started in Bembridge at about 08;30 . There were times when I didn't see another rider.
I was sure I'd missed signs . some of those climbs, bloody hell. . . went round in five and half hours. . wasn't expecting the gravel section. . Was on a 48/20 s/s macchiato . Only saw two other s/s bikes .
Much the same as the rest of you are saying.

That was a very good ride and it was free.
