You’re responsible for yourself on the route. If you have a problem such that you can’t continue you have to make your own arrangements to return home/to HQ (and let the organisers know your situation).
The route is mostly on small lanes, some of which have grass or gravel up the middle, and potholes are many. There are long climbs and steep descents. TAKE CARE. Any roadworthy bike should get round but unless riding tubeless tyres you will need spare inner tubes, tyre levers and a pump; sturdy tyres, excellent brakes and low gearing are recommended.
There is now directional signing at all junctions on the route, but this can be corrupted by weather or human malevolence so a GPS device with the route downloaded is recommended
There is minimal hazard sign-posting or junction/hazard marshalling on the route
This is not a race. This aims to be a friendly event ridden at your own pace with respect for others.
EBikes are not recommended – batteries may not last the distance and the amount of climbing – but nor are they barred.
