    Oooh, looks good.

    Unmarshalled and unsanctioned probably means it's unlikely to get Police approval.

    Let's do it anyway.

    I like the team group format, but unregulated? No thanks, that's just an invitation for undisciplined loons to turn out and for police not to cooperate with legally sanctioned events, with which we have had enough problems.
    To err is human, but to make a real balls up takes a super computer.

    Well you don't ride in 1 big group though and so don't need a police escort (tbh). You ride with your team and it's such a long race (I think they 'raced'' about 200km with some big hills).

    Also you could make it selective entries so as to keep ot the undisciplined loons :)
