This 'no excuses' event was so called because it cost 1p to enter! The catch is that if you don't turn up you pay £25 and the money goes to Charity. Clever promotion for the ukcyclingevents organization. There was a strong turn out & I'm sure many will enter the other events later in 2011!
I arrived at around 0845 and Luke set off with a head start. Michiel was helping in the registration tent so we got going 25 minutes later.
Out of Huntington we skirted Graffham Water & headed westward turning North for the refreshment stop in Riseley after a terrific descent. This was where we caught up with Luke who had made fantastic progress. The 18 miles home were helped by a tail wind and some nice downhill sections.
Close to home Luke passed the 40 mile barrier for the first time - WELL DONE.
44.2m 2h55m @ 15.2mph 1448ft climb
