Could there be a free sample at the end by any chance? If so I may need mine half way round. \Looking forward to 2008 ride, great event well organized and well signposted all the way round. Criterium races on the Friday night well worth a look to help build up the atmosphere.0 -
will have to have a word with the brewery and see if they will put up a stand in Matfen! they are just a couple of miles away from the route! You could always make a detour to savour a pint. The brewery is HIgh House Farm brewery. Their Matfen Magic beer is magic!
There will be signing on again for the sportive rides at the criteriums on the friday - just pray for beeter weather next year![/quote]0 -

It was a bit damp last year at the crits, but the pros put on a good show inspite of the weather, good support races as well. Rain only goes skin deep anyway, and if your cycling in this country, you get used to the shitty weather.0 -
