Nick, I would, but it's all about the grams...I'd be worried about the weight it'll add

I would just like to add , you are certifiably nuts!!, worked out that the average is 12 miles an hour over the 24! Any sportives I have done I am lucky to average that over 60 miles! Good for you!

Was at the Glasgow Bike show at the weekend, but I don't know if my cycle to work scheme will stretch to a £10k Pinarello!

As an aside, a mate swears by a jelly baby every 15 minutes and a swig of Hi5 or similar on the half hour

^^^ What a stupid idea There will be more rear end shunts than ever because people are usually looking at signs to see if they are coming off at the right exit. That idea would be a nightmare.
Sorry Bc, don't want to distract from this great cause. Back on topic. I still can't get my head around you cycling 280 in 24 hours Was you intoxicated when you said that you would do it

Ady, you are right, but it is pedestrians that come off worse. i lived in Rotterdam for a while, and right outside the train station is a massive roundabout , you have trams,cars and bikes criss crossing - its a nightmare walking accross the road.

Thanks Dave - just to make it worse, the average is closer to 15 mph by the time you factor in the ferry crossing and stops for food/water

LOL @ a Pinarello (Dogma 2 ) on the ride to work....if only. My mate got one of these last year and it's a lovely bike,

Thanks TST - it's 6th July, arriving in Paris on the 7th.
Obligatory pic under the Le Tour Eiffel will of course follow


@ Ady - no not drunk, although I can guarantee I will be the night I arrive in Paris, I recon I'll need all the alcohol to numb the pain  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
