    I'm in, better half not ... but can't do it now anyway ... so will have to give up my place.
  • Computer says no :(

    If anyone finds a company that doesn't require a huge amount of fund raising let me know.
  • Mine doesn't ask me to pay but it doesn't say cancelled either...? Am I in?

    I think the payment bit was wrong, but if it says approved then it's a yes.
  • It's cancelled for me. Tricky to tell whether having done it last year was actually a disadvantage. CBA with a charity place (I rode last year for a local charity my wife is a trustee of so it wouldn't be wise for me to raise money for one if the big ones!!). Need to decide now whether to tap up other routes to getting a place or not bother. Odd one as it's a great event but not a great cycling route.

    Hmm clicking on this link just takes me to a kind of title page with no other links/options/boxes to fill in details etc.
    Am I doing something wrong?

  • They've taken the link down within the last half an hour, I'm guessing they're getting inundated with calls from people trying to confirm whether they're in or not...

  • Looks like I've been denied but my wife has been accepted. We wanted to ride this together so this is a pain in the backside. :evil:
    I'm sure we're not the only couple like this either.
    Is there some kind of waiting list that I can go on or is that pretty much it for me this year..?

    Get one of the charity places? I'm sure between you you'd be able to raise the necessary sponsorship.

    With doing LEJOG later in the year, also for charity, this isn't an option.

    Rejected, not sure if my OH is in or not yet but even if he is I think I'll just mill around and watch rather than doing the charity thing.

    Shropshire is too far north for them. Don't get too upset. Try again next year.

    So I've gone in on my phone and I don't see "cancelled" anywhere but neither do I see anything about continuing to pay etc. Any ideas what this means? Other than I should have waited until the mag comes out?! :lol:

    Did it last year so will consider myself extremely lucky to get in again.

    Cancelled, gutted but not surprised
  • Also cancelled. Lots of effort expended via smartphone and slooow connection to discover that, but awaiting the arrival of the post was too much. Ah well.

    I will probably head off into Wales and find some off road trails on the day of the ride.

    I will be doing this the week before http://staffordgp.co.uk/
