Main Route/Profile

80.3 miles - 3,930ft Ascent (more than Snowdon from sea level!) Great fun ride. Absolutely p*ssed down for a while
(marked in red on map.) Heiko unfortunately had a near-catasrophic spoke failure which curtailed his ride.
Jon Stringer did the 50 mile version whilst those of us who were really mad did the surprisingly hilly 75
- with riding to/from the event we turned in just over 80 miles . [SS,NS,JC,HW,JStr,JS]
