Eroica Britannia 2016 - anyone signed up?

[kingbling]

So how will we recognise fellow forumites?

Lets ask the Governor if we can borrow a RB banner and meet underneath it

Re:

Does anyone know how the ticketing for this works? I have signed up and paid but other than the odd update I have not received anything further. Should I receive tickets in the post? Will they email a code? What happens now?

 

[kingbling]

I was getting a bit concerned I hadn't heard anything, but you can download your tickets now, if you go to log in - my account - purchase history, there should be links there, it's not that intuitive, but that's where mine were

Re:

I was really interested in this until I read of the 15 miles of "rough stuff" :shock: For those of you who have ridden this event before, just how bad is it/ how likely are punctures etc? I have to confess to being a "smooth as a billiard table" kind of rider, so maybe it's not for me??

The off road stuff really adds to the ride in my opinion

Nothing too taxing for your average cyclist but you can walk/pootle if need be
