thanks, think i might sign up for this . will do the full route. one thing though , dont you think 35 km is a bit soon for the first feed stop ? would,nt it be better to swap it with the drink stop at 80 km. tim0

Done this last year and had a great day out. the best sportive i have done well stocked feed stations and the food at the end is good.Will be there again this year.Keep the chain tight all the way.0

The first feed stop is there mainly for the challenge riders who break off from the pro route shortly after this. Good chance for a second breakfast I recon.
Im heading up to Stoke this week to ride some of the route - emphasis on 'some of' - so ill take some photos and put them on the Unite Bycycling facebook page.
The KOM timing splits on the category climbs should be a great addition this year and longton park for the event village will be fantastic.0 -
Hi Steve. I'm booked onto this again as well. Are you planning to have the routes on the website as GPX files again this year? If so, any ETA on getting them posted?0
-
We are just looking into getting this done now, not sure of an eta yet sorry but hope to get it sorted soon - glad you are signed up again. Look forward to seeing you in September.0
-
Any news on the GPX? Also, have you got the route mapped on a site like Bikely or Map My Ride?
Already booked on the ride.

Ive signed up for the Challenge ride the other week and am thinking about changing it to the Pro ride later this month. I did the challenge ride last year in 6 hours (id only been riding for about a week beforehand) and raised just under £100 and want to push myself more this year.
I am trying to raise £500 this year for them and for EVERY £500 that I do raise for them, I am personally going to donate 1 weeks wages to them, so please donate as much spare money as you possibly can
This will be my first ride over 50 miles, so please please donate!
http://www.prostatecancercharity.org.uk/CarlBrandrick to donate
Thank you so much
