Going to be a bit last minute for me this year. Not sure if I'll be on this one or the other side of the border one.

Ready salted, cheese and onion or smokey bacon? If everyone can let me know, I'll get it sorted.

OK, so assuming I don't break myself on the BB300 (and that's assuming I can heal enough to actually get on it), then I'm down for this.

Hopefully being winter there won't be ticks.
Sure the little buggers would make a guest appearance for me.
Would a gravel bike be okay for the route?

Not 100% decided where we're going but it should be fine.
