Lazy and disorganised I've missed the entry to HONC again! However that shouldn't prevent a bit of fun with some help from the Singletrack Forum.

So who is up for a ride on the 11th of April a bit further south on the Cotswold escarpment near Bath?

Hills a plenty, complete disorganisation, waymarking would be by pubs and singlespeeds or period bikes and kit a must. I can probably sort out (blag) some incentives/prizes but this would absolutely not be a race.

Mix of road and bridleways requiring a bit of navigation competence.

So reply with an "Aye!" if interested and Retro, Singlespeed or Crossbike "category".

Could do, but was thinking more along the lines of drinks and clobber than unwanted tyres and skinny handlebars.

The committee has come up with several route suggestions that have merit. So is 100k too much or a healthy target (with bail out options of course)?

100k with a bail option?

There would be bail out options due to the vaguely circular route.

Hi Tasso,

Fantastic idea. Mind if I invite the rest of 'The Others'?

And let me know if you need a hand with route planning
