Did the New Forest Saturday sportive today. Great route, quiet roads, very few junctions. Well signed, cheerful staff, efficient food stops etc. I know sportives get a lot of bashing for being expensive, and yes, no doubt I could have ridden that ride on my own any day I like, but I wouldn't have had the paceline or the sense of occasion. Well done Wiggle (and no, I don't work for them!) Only improvement suggestion - can somebody think of some kind of evening class for the ponies to teach them the Highway Code?
