I may well give this one a go depending on weather - have cycled with some of the SWRC before and theyare all pretty fit - don't be deceived by age with these guys. Here is a link and there is an application and map on pdf

I didn't see you on this Robbie! in fact I was the only full ACC member out of about 100 riders, but Geraldine, a 2nd claim member was there with her partner Marek. It was a brilliant session, well organised with some big hills - I got around the 60 miles course with no stops in under 4 hours but I think the leaders broke 3.30 minutes. The signposting was excellent except for the half way checkpoint which most missed but nobody cared very much. Cake and tea was 50p! and entrance was £5. I gave Danny, manager from Geoffrey Butler a lift home so a pleasant chat about bikes on the return journey. Saw another crash on whitedown, 2 in 2 days - maybe I should take up pilates?? This is definitely a ride to bookmark for next year.
