I've put it in my calandar

The 100 km route splits from the 100 mile route after 70km, you can leave the decision about what distance to ride until the last minute

They have 500 as a limited - currently at about 15 online (might be more paper yet to be updated)

I will keep an eye and can anyone shout if it is getting close!

Kay and myself could be up for this - I see from the website that one can start fairly late to allow peeps to get the train, so I guess we would do that.

With sunset at approx 16:18 that would only give us time to comfortably do the 100k - probably enough in November anyway!

Anyone else?

Cool, andy said he was interested too. I'm easy on either, rather go with a few faces than alone.

I'd be up for it.

There is also the emitremmus on the 25th Oct. I did it last year and it was a lot of fun despite the crap weather.

I think I'm up for this. 100 mile ride, surely? I rather like riding at night.

Form an orderly queue behind Mike and his uber lights - it'll be like riding during daylight Smile

I'm with my daughter in Whitstable on Saturday and think I'll stay over till Sunday to do this ride.

Is anyone else still thinking of doing this?
