Hi Anglianers, would I be correct in thinking that the Circuit of the Fens sportive falls in your region? Anyone doing it or done it?
 
Re:

I'll stick my neck out and guess its fairly flat? How bad do the winds get in July?
 
Re:

Don't be fooled by the apparent flatness. The bits that are not on the fens are surprisingly bumpy, long grinding climbs. As LGF said, the wind on the fens can be a killer. I know people that have done the '100' on this ride and they say it is as hard as any other '100'.
 
Re:

Cheers, I was heading for the 132mile ride, I'll mull it over a bit more.
 
Re:

Well I'll be heading to the Fens on Saturday, in for a penny an all that and plumped for the longer 132mile ride. Anyone going?
 
Re:

That's pretty bad, hope the guy pulls through. Friend of a friend was draughting a coach and didn't see it swing out around a stationary car. He wrote the car off. Occupants needed treating for shock. Off duty police officer saved his life by performing a Tracheotomy. Always pays to look where you are going....

On a lighter note - how did it go Kaiser?
