Oooh, it looks tempting, but I'm not sure I could take the relentless discipline of training every day for eight hours, riding hard into headwinds and crosswinds on teamwork duty, or indeed up epic mountain passes in the Grand Tours. I think I'll pass to give someone else a chance.

You undercover bikeradar lover Clive!

Murdoch should really be getting someone on to the cross-platform promotions; you own Myspace remember??

pwned by Zed.

The dishonour.

I imagine Clive has a great user on bike radar.

Summat like Probono52

I don't like the idea of submitting my mobile number to Sky's marketing team thanks

anyone else had replies?

Tao

Chapeau. Enjoy it. Have a really good ride.

Thank you :)
No doubt ill see you in the shop on saturday?
Did you enter?

So what's the location?

Not a clue
i dont think you find out untill the day
they just texted me saying you have been selected and there will be more info to follow

I joined the facebook group but cannot see a form or anything. Am I missing something?

Yeah i think the entry has closed for it

^ they know with twitter etc it's going to turn into a huge mob ride that they can say was limited for 300.

I was just thinking about how they are going to limit it.
Im sure they will have thought of a way too
although then they wont be able to ride on open roads because people can just join it...

Go easy on them, Tao, or they won't know what's hit them.

just started thread asking basically what is answered here;

taogeogheganhart will you tell us location when you get it? im well up this ride. do you twitter, or could you post here?

Was just gonna join once it gets started or if its really is barriered off completely watch from afar, catch a glimpse of big brad.

(im guessing its gotta be somewhere round westminister? get in the monuments for press shots, and big nearly empty roads around there. Unless is just a track session? I hope not that would be killer.)

Probably too late now he's a proper roadie but you could just go to Good Friday meet and watch him set his bike up..
