Wales Sportive saturday 9th June

I entered this today – I know Andrew is doing it

Who else?

I’ll be there, doing a solo effort as Ironman Wales testing. Won’t be fast but it’ll be good to see how I go on tired legs. Have fun all!

Does anyone know what time the 112mile route starts and from where? On the website it says 7 but in the observer last week it said 8?

Anybody who is doing the long course will need ID, that what it says on their Facebook site

This it what it says

Don’t forget Photo ID at registration for long course.

Driving licence is fine

Well done to all who did it

Andrew gave a lift down

We started together Andrew saying he would take it easy as he had the dragon to worry about (the ride not one of his iratible customers)

Well as is the same story as the next day we started together & split up the first hill with this time Andrew disappearing into the distance & me chasing shadows

So from Daniels hill I rode more or less on my own. Was a very good atmosphere with loads of people (604) more than last year & average time substantially slower. Last year I finish in about 7 hours but was below half way this year the average was closer to 8:20

The stats

Name dist time average position

Nick Brown 112 05:38:13 19.87 5

Dai Swan 112 06:25:23 17.44 43

Andrew Rees 112 06:33:57 17.06 51

Mat Greener 112 07:12:53 15.52 112

I know Nick is not a dynamo but put in there as someone we know

Who else rode?

[Roger]

Damm! Missed an opportunity to get Nick Brown to ride as my surrogate!

[swancvs]

Roger,

Perhaps you can send an E-mail to Activity Wales informing them of your arrangement and they can amend the record to reflect more accurately?

[leightsp]

You forgot me at the bottom of your stats!

Leighton Phillips 112 08:00:47 13.97 262/604

[Legaleagle]

Or truly at the bottom

Dan Lewis 112 08:22:08 13.39 303/604

[MatG]

Good ride by everyone – Dan still over 300 people behind you & the number of people who couldn’t even think of doing it

Many Aces got over 8 hours – although both Nick Brown & Ollie Simon are Aces these days
