Will back up whats said before. Go for it as there is always people on the site to help and advise and speed of the run leader never seems to be a problem. Sunday is always a much better turn out than saturdays and usually less choss on the roads. There are usually people who will take on the job of back marker but would advise having a local who knows the route as sweeper up in case anyone has any problems and try to make T & P stops between 1 to 1½ hour intervals for rider comfort.
Best of luck.

Friday only
Just need to check with some relatives in Chipping Sodbury (who MAY be on holiday for all I know at the moment)
Failing that, there's lots of Premier Inns in the area

Thanks to those who came out to play Today. The weather was kind to us after a cold start and Yesterdays rain meant the roads were muddier than I would have liked
Some good points raised about toilets,breaks, routes, roads and 2 day runs. What we did today will be cut down and used with a different start point (or possibly a long lunch stop to pick up those who have further to travel) Then probably an overnight near glastonbury and run round Exmoor on the Sunday finishing somewhere handy for the A38,A39 and M5
