Ride London 100

I have set up this thread with the purpose of inspiring all members of the NAS RL100 team who are taking on this challenge.
 
The chat can be about anything broadly related to this ride.  For example:
 
  • Why this challenge and why are you doing this
  • Who inspired you
  • Discussions about your training
  • Discussions about your fundraising
  • Use it for obtaining tips from experienced members of the team
  • You can identify the level of experience that you already have and what your personal goal is
  • Setting up training rides or routes
  • Discussing how you are going to tackle Newlands Corner, Leith Hill or Box Hill
  • What other members of your family are going to do during your ride
 
It doesn’t matter if you are looking for a PB of less than 5 hours or even if you will even be delighted at beating the nine hour time limit, we will all be experienced cyclist at the end of this experience and all contributions are welcome.
 
PS.  Apparently Kate Donohue is also going to be contributing to this thread!

  • Great news about the number Arran and thanks so much for the tips and info guys...

    There will be sandwiches and snacks at the post-race event but I was actually wondering if you could think of any snacks for us to bring along to hand out during the ride - bananas?  Sweets?  More flapjacks and energy gels?  Let me know what you think!

    Also let me know if there is anywhere in particular on the route that you think you would benefit from a pit stop... preferrably London-based for our kind volunteers!

    Thanks all :)
