Hey Stuart when do you send out the gpx please!!

Int' morning.

[dlovett]

Well that looks like it’s going to be fun. Sadly I am at work so I can’t spend more than 5 mins looking at it.

Hopefully it’s not as bad as it looks!

[macinblack]

I've just fly-by'd it, never looks so bad that way. I'd like to get over the big lumpy bit before sunset, last time it was dark, how I laughed all the way across.

[redefined_cycles]

Does anyone know why, when I load my map into MyMaps so I can view amenities. It won't load up the title after being saved! Ta..

Thanks

[adrianb]

Great.
Many thanks

[macinblack]

Thanks Stu - Numpty here just twigged what I'd done when I was walking the dogs and rushed back to edit my indiscretion. Sorry, I was overcome by a heady mix of exhilaration and dread when I typed it.

[Richard G]

Urghhh... I've done the section around half way (200) a few times before. It's a slog.

[Hyppy]

Urghhh...

That's the spirit!

Daft question

Is the 200 a clockwise or anticlockwise loop, just want to confirm the turn or not at the end of the lollipop stick

[whitestone]

Cheers Stu.

Not going anywhere near where I thought we were! Ah well! The 50km from around the 75km mark looks, err, interesting

Riderdown - looks like anticlockwise to me.

Not a great deal of... anything.

Edit - Barely even on Strava heatmaps.

Timings will be interesting. Going to be cutting it close on a couple of shops based on the average speeds I'm expecting / hoping for.

Just see how you feel on the day

If it's anticlockwise, the faster riders should be ok, I'm looking forward to rolling past the shops and takeaways long after they close

Spotted one pub a bit off course on the western extreme that allegedly serves food to 9

Undertrained, slow, etc

[Bearbonesnorm]

Anti clockwise from the split ... it does say ont' email

[dlovett]

I'm going to go with Garmin as it thinks it's ONLY 206.19 km Distance 3,931 m Total Ascent 3,931 m Total Descent as opposed to Komoot that thinks it's 215 km, 4,310 m A, 4,310 m D.

Stu, you make the same mistake I do in thinking/believing/trusting that people actually read instructions or help that you write

RidewithGPS gives 4260m of uppy-downy.

I read it, did something else, finally worked out how I could view it without paying for another subscription, went ooo, aaaahhh, rechecked didn't see it and decided to ask

I have done better than the poster who started naming places.......

[Richard G]

There's a river crossing I can see, but I can't seem to see any sort of actual crossing... given the size of the river I really hope it's just the various satellite pics not being particularly detailed.
