This is not a race.

All those in favour say aye.

Caveat: no one is allowed to slam me if I've yet to complete the fixed build. Promise I won't change gear if so.

I missed this one last year due to the lolcano. Shall not miss it this year!

That's fine, just making sure you do, it would be a shame if people missed the ride because of missing information on the first post.

can we get a map of the route up on the thread this time. We got a bit lost on a few occasions last year.

and this year I will not drink for 15 hours afterwards :-)
