Gents,
Just a quick one to mention im in the East Mids Cicle Classic this Sunday (27th), starting 11am from Oakham market place. I'm normally flying the retrobike flag but am taking part as a member of the East Mids team (white, red and blue colours), rider number 51. For those not in the know, its a 100 mile road race consisting of several off-road-ish sections, mimicking the Classics; Tour of Flanders/Paris-Roubaix, etc. 2 laps of rutland water, followed by hitting the lanes around Owston and Somerby (inc the nasty "Somerberg"), followed by a finish in Melton Mowbray high street. Its a great race to watch if anyone is in the area as the race passes many points a number of times. 180 riders entered - the biggest field in Britain with the exception of le Tour. I was 38th last year. Just recovered from illness, so fingers crossed for good legs on the day. check out http://www.cicleclassic.co.uk/ for further info.
