Anyone doing the RBLR 1000?

[SirFallalot]

Pretty much just asking for your experiences or expected experiences for this year.

My friend has invited me, however after 5 months hiatus not sure how smart of an idea it is. I took the bike out already but surely the stamina and skill has dropped for such a thing.

I take that back. Clicking 'further information' reveals all, ironically!

I had no idea this was a thing but sounds like a good cause! Bit short notice to start trying to get donations though. I'll mull it over the next couple of days

I'd rather remove my testicles with a blunt spoon.

Same.

My initial thought was the southern route as that's where I live (less distance to travel to and from), but given the fact that you have to start and finish in Leeds... it actually makes no difference whatsoever which route to do. I've travelled around the South and the Midlands quite a bit but the furthest North I've ever been is Windermere / Newcastle. Never been to Scotland so sounds like a good adventure and I'm sure the scenery is to die for. Not fussed which way round.

Anyone got a list of scenic/panoramic view points to take photos of the bike from along the route?

In for a penny, in for a pound I usually say.

However in this instance I think 10p is all you're going to need.

We're doing route A, the group is up to 4 now! 2 of us might break off if necessary.

I got saturated on the way home from Somerset earlier today. Had to sit in the hot tub for an hour sulking and thawing out before I would talk to anyone.

I'm still in two minds over this...

I suppose technically you could sharpen a spoon so, yeah, the descriptor is valid.
