With much regret I have decided that I cannot organize the Hard Day ride for 2014.
There are two reasons.
My fitness to ride is doubtful. I certainly don’t want to be in a position where I start with a group and then become a liability. For this reason, even though I might be able to ride, I am certainly not able to lead.
My Road Race organizing job is already taking up quite a lot of time. At the moment I don’t want to take on anything else which may involve ‘risk assessment’.
There’s no reason why the ride shouldn’t go ahead without me just as long as there’s some one else prepared to lead. I’m only too willing to give any help I can, for example: check that the café is available, provide last year’s route sheet, write a report etc.
Let me know what you think.
