Wiggle No Excuses - 1 March

I'll be driving there for 7.30 arrival; hopefully see you all there

Not sure what's happening re the roadworks between Grafham and Perry. Last night there were 3 or 4 sets of lights and a further set of roadworks with a priority in one direction. Should be fun with 2000 people passing through if they are still there for the weekend!

When they have the big Tri events at Grafham water they tend to clear everything away for the race day so hopefully they will do the same for the Sportive.

Just had a chat with Wiggle and Dale tells me "Unfortunately we cannot be sure as to the status of the traffic lights, I expect a solution will be found for this on the day if there is an issue, sorry." - Very reassuring........

All the roadworks have been removed from Grafham to the Perry-Buckden road junction.

hopefully see you there tomorrow; aiming for 7.30 arrival & 8.00 start if poss

I can hardly believe it, Simon R rode 80 miles today without a puncture!!

Well he was a lucky one then, sorry lost you Mark, I did have puncture on that hill near the start.

The reason we were so slow, we were weighed down with all those extra inner tubes for you!
Looks like you might loose your crown if you keep this up.

you were right to be cautious, I only had four spares with me today!

A good day Saturday and it seems all posted good times. Wiggle hosted a great event, which was well organised and we were spoilt with the weather. Hopefully this will be the start of a great season of cycling. Roll on the SICC 100 mile ride in a couple of weeks !
