Is anyone doing this this year? Its on Sunday 12th October, you can choose between an 8 mile mixed terrain ride and the 23 mile red monster

We could get some BikeRadar shirts made up?

I'm definately up for it - Has anyone ridden in before? How many people are likely to turn up to such an event?

    Well its done!

    Did it yesterday - The red route is absolutely endless! I suffered from extremely sore hands, my gloves have just given up, and the material is nearly worn out. I've a big blister where my thumb joins my finger.

    My mate got cramp really bad in both his legs! I have some pictures I'll post when I get them onto the PC.

    36 riders altogether - No-one from here?

    Did the Red route for the 1st time about a month ago and absolutely loved it.

    Hard work as my fitness aint as good as the other 2 guys i ride with, but looking forward to going back. Just wish it was a bit closer to Leeds!

    Didn't realise this was on, shame, would have been a worthy ride.
