Hot Chillee sportive this Sunday

Morning all

Keen to step training up from trips of c.70miles to/from Box Hill and saw this sportive on Sunday - http://www.ukcyclingevents.co.uk/events ... tive-2012/

I think the shorter route would be too short for my liking, but 115miles is a blinding distance! Is anyone else doing this? I'm keen to try but perhaps going solo for that long is a bit too much for me.

The profile charts don't seem to work. Can anyone let me know how much climbing there would be on the long course?

    Off the London to Paris website:

    - the 'Epic Route' of 180km (115 miles) has 1732m of climbing. There is an alternative shorter route for friends and family who may wish to ride the 'Standard Route' of 100km (66 miles), with 915m of climbing.

    I'll be doing it as part of L2P training. The L2P riders will set off in groups at the beginning so if you tire, then there's bound to be a group coming along to join onto.

    They lied!

    It was 2215m - I'm knackered.
