    Why would you avoid an event just because you don't like the name?

    Go on Andy tell em about the lack of signage and the missing marshalls/drink/food stations . Tell about having to fill water bottles from the tap in the gents and all the other complaints as listed by forumites.

    But to be fair, also tell 'em about the spectacularly beautiful and challenging route!

    Ive done this event twice.

    1st time was superb, great route, great marshalling and a superb day all round.

    2nd year the marshalling was a bag of sh1te and the food stations were not as good and too far apart. (thinking of the one that moved from Whitewell to Chipping for some bizarre reason), but the route was still utterly stunning.

    I will be doing this again, I just hope they sort the marshalling out.

    The trouble is that this event is also being placed head to head with the Phil Liggett CTC Challenge Ride event on the same day.

    I do hope that we are not going to have the Rydale Rumble on the same day again this year!
