56 miles. I'm only up to the pace for 3 miles as it stands but we'll see. John and Gavin I expect will be racing a lot this year but they are now 2nd cat.

I did this today (well, until I got dropped on Bromley Bank - it's a shame they didn't change it to the Bobbington course like they originally planned!). What happened to you, Jamie?

The circuit at Bobbington unfortunately requires a minimum of 13 AM's and is also having a few post Velo problems with locals. Hopefully all sorted in time for the Thursday evening race shortly, but don't expect it to be used that often.
The Bridgnorth circuit used today is a good safe route although the keenness to get back to see the Paris Roubaix may have been the reason for the race being only three laps instead of four 😁

Unfortunately my lift decided to cancel on me on Saturday, and i couldn't arrange another! shame as i was quite looking forward to it! i did send the organisers a apologetic email and have offered my services as an apology for any future events!
