You guys are fuckin legends. All the volunteers really make this ride special. Many of them were more tired than the riders and were so helpful and understanding - even when some of the riders were less than courteous - which isnt excusable but is understandable because your body plays with your mood a little from time to time.
I stayed in pocklington twice, and the people there were so lovely that it it felt like home by the time I rolled out the second time!!!
To those still out there, just keep rolling. You can do it - just dont give up on yourself when it gets tough. Back it off a few kph and keep trundling. The body is an amazing machine.
