If the worst happens just come along and you can do one of my laps! But I am sure that there are teams that would need another member....

Not sure of my other team members, but I'm taking a longer route home on the commute.
Normally it takes about 20 mins, 1hr 30 yesterday and 45 mins tonight. Hoping to get over the Purbecks tomorrow eve.
Being Captain I feel I should lead by example.

Do we know how long a lap is yet?

Sorry, interloper from another team here.

I can't find the new release now, but Wiggle released a circuit profile a while ago, and I'm pretty sure they said the lap was around 11k.

i see to remember that a lap is 8.5 miles, but i may be wrong

Well thats cool any idea on the terrain? 8.5miles of "up" would suck!

 

[NeilM]

8.5 miles would be around 13.6k, so that would seem about right.

The profile they sent out showed a couple of equally sized climbs and descents (not too surprising), so it would appear there are a couple of climbs per lap.
