LEL 2013 / London - Edinburgh - London Audax

Hopefully see some of you in a few days. I'm helping to man the checkpoint in Brampton (Cumbria), 'cos I live there.

for anyone interested, I'll be riding the prologue, and starting at 8.

Me too! :D

I'll hopefully share some load with some quite strong guys I've met this year who are starting at the same time

Crikey :S

last minute crises of confidence

GP 4seasons in 28mm or 4000s in 25?

Smallest tyres possible.

Hopefully see some of you in a few days. I'm helping to man the checkpoint in Brampton (Cumbria), 'cos I live there.

Are you Manchester's Yoav? Either way, see you at Brampton :D

p.s. Garmin >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Are you Manchester's Yoav?

Err .... I'm nobody's Yoav. I live near Carlisle. Is there another Yoav?

There was a guy in Manchester called Yoav, played polo I think. NM

Anyone else getting that "I really, really, really, really don't want to do this" feeling?

No?

Low blood sugar; I feel fine now.

More feeling unprepared rather, and worried about mechanical, did not help that I'm working today.

Stop thinking it's 1400km, stop thinking it's 1400km, stop thinking it's 1400km, stop thinking it's 1400km...

**I'm not panicking!!! **(imagine capitals)

I am hungover... Need to sort out bag drops/registration...

Don't worry I'm still packing too... it's open until 17:00 :-)

Yeah I'll probably be pushing 5 when I arrive!

bout to jump on the bike and head off to rego

where's all this rain we were promised. Its fookin hot.
guess it will start at about 5:30 tomorrow mornin..

Oh, and I'm rider k40, in case my legions of adoring fans want to keep their blogs updated with my progress.

Best of luck to all of you doing it.

Heavy rain's meant to be along about 4pm, hopefully this will cool things down for you.

Good luck everyone!

Cloud look it here in Surreys, actually wouldn't mind a bit of rain.

Will be there at 6am tomorrow, gotta buy all the shite from work and crammed it all in a handlebar bag.

Good luck everyone! Goodbye! Safe journey!

Ride safe and ride strong all.

Well done you all, LEL fantastic what a great opportunity, not sure if I'm jealous or not :-)
Respect to you all indeed, for even starting, ride well and get back safe.

The Brevet Card for rider V44 has been found on the road at Loughton by another rider, who says he'll keep it safe. Hope these two are reunited soon.
Have a great ride, everyone!

I just realised I didn't received my Brevet card...

Well, fuck.

Look like it's too late, was at work all days and haven't realised I need to register today rather than tomorrow.

email send to the organiser.

Don't worry Ed I'm sure it will be absolutely fine :)

Arrive a bit early tomorrow and you'll probably be able to sort it out no problem
