Hey guys,
I have just submitted the entry for my first ever road race, the Bill Jinks Memorial RR. Is anyone else doing this one?
Also does anyone have any advice for preparing/stuff i should take?

    Yes I'm doing that race. For ideas on what to take, see this thread viewtopic.php?f=40041&t=12836081&p=17463683#p17443050 you may have noticed the thread already when you were looking in this forum. As for how to prepare, well, first and foremost make sure you can ride well in a group, , don't ever brake suddenly, make sure you hold your line around corners, look before you manouevre, don't make sudden unpredictable moves that could take other riders out... and get ready to work harder than you thought.
