I've just signed up for this 35mile ride, as my first big ride....hmmm, should i be panicking? Just wanted to hear from people who've done it. Training? What the day is like? Anyone going at it alone for the first time? Anyone interested in the challenge, haha, share the pain...... www.bhf.org.uk

    have done the route before,

    lots of climbing, so you need to be able to pace yourself,
    otherwise its fairly easy,

    if its dry use some fast rolling tyres, the westerly wind in the summer should also push you along,

    wear sun block if its sunny and get used to gates,
