Have emailed them.

Be odd to send us up the main road at the start.

Re:

That wasn't funny. Just done the first ten miles before heading for home via the tea stop. So Windy again. But firm. Lots of road and track. And up.

From the email that arrived a few days ago:

You can choose on the day whether to do the 100K or 50K or

the first 50K & then the 25K of the shorter route if the full 100K looks too tough.

I'd like to try the longer but know I've not done enough in the last few months to get near it. Tempting to try and then bail, 75km is 42 miles or so.. good long distance but manageable? I'd be so slow they would probably hoik me onto the 50km anyway.

THM keep us informed of the weather will ya? Keen to know if its likely a mudbath in which case the wagon wheels are coming out. If its dry-ish then I will be taking the kili perhaps.
