Are You Tough Enough?
First one is a 100km ride on the Ridegway. Techincally we'd all ride as individuals. But we'd ride together anyway/
Second is a 6 hour team event on Fireroads and trails... which in many ways will be miles more fun... but i think even though less distance, could be a lot toughter. Also we are riding that as an actual team too.
Part of this is for one of the lads who broke his shoulder at the weekend and it will be used as an incentive for him to get ack to fitness... so i'm thinking the Ridegeway may be easier on the shoulder...
I'm also actually debating doing both events myself. Even though they're on consecutive days... i think i can do the 100km on the Sat and the 6 hours on the Sunday...
Should be a laugh either way though.
Which would you pick, and why ?
