LEL 2017 / London - Edinburgh - London Audax

That would be amazing if you don't mind bringing them to Westminster at some point. Will pm you when I can get to computer

No problem, consider it done!

It looks like @damitamit has been able to get them after all so should be ok. Thank you both.

Home and suddenly feeling very tired plus more gloomy about failing to finish.

Is the pack rate normally this high on LEL? Or is it just the weather being really properly shit?

Y8

120k left about 11 hours to do it

Have a snooze at st Ives. Will make the final push a lot easier if your feeelig it. Allez dude. Last stretch

How's the fens today? It was fecking brutal yesterday.

Bon courage

Same as always flat and boring with a massive headwind (worse than yesterday's).

Where are the Indians?!

Important question for @Thrasher is there any beer at the finish or do I need to pick some up before I leave St Ives?

Keep on smashing through my friend.

Allez allez!

Shred shred Brad and Jim!

Thank you. This ride had so many great stories that I can't wait to share them all in a blog entry. Hopefully Monday.

No beer at Laughton. Grab one if you can in st Ives or there's a few little shops in village

Can I get in on that too Tony? I'm just down the road from Westminster and that's probably as far as I could manage on a bike for a couple of weeks. May be a bit late to have caught you now but I'm waiting on my Edinburgh bag which Danial told me should have arrived this evening. Rider A14.

Oops, missed this--great ride, O.!

No problem. If it's as light as the one you handed to me at Barnard Castle as you left there (I'd DNF'd but had donned a red t-shirt as I sorted logistics of getting home) I'm sure it's just a couple of handfuls of stuff! Will PM once it's in hand.

Finished.

Awesome! Well done.

Well done Brad!

Well done all finishers... Would love to chat with a couple of you for a blog post on themassifcentral.blog

Please drop me a line if you are interested..

thanks
Howard

Yes Brad! Nice little buffer too so hopefully that last leg was almost enjoyable...
