Anyone going to this? Or have you been?
I realy want to get as much experience as possible this year doing some profesionaly organised rides, races, & long distance's. I want to test myself on differant terrains, and in differant climates, and against other riders.
I realy fancy having ago at this. (see link below)

It states on thier web site that:
"It is MANDATORY to have a regular permission to practice cycling to take part to the Granfondo Colnago course"
Anyone know what this means? And where get i get permission? Does it meen i need a licence? Are there any other rides like this where you need a licence?
I was also thinking of "The 175km Tour Of Britain" in the South West.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
thanks

It normally means a medical certificate from your doctor.
You used to be able to use a British Cycling racing licence for a lot of events abroad, but the organisers then realised you don't need a medical for a BC licence, unlike a lot of EU governing bodies.0
