Applied but didn't get in. Wouldn't have been fit enough to do it anyway. One mate got in via the ballot and another is doing it on a charity place.

Me, I'm riding on my Triban 5. Not looking forward to all the rain and wind but there you go.

A letup in the rain atm, but it was bucketing down not so long ago. Not a nice day to be riding.
Only just realised we can see the route from our loft and have been hearing a lot of whoop whoops all morning. They won't be so happy on there way back.

Down to 86 miles because of the weather. Still going to be hard going I think. Good luck to all doing it

Its brightening up in Kingston now. I can hear the protests of motorists outside my window who want to use/cross the route with the most common complaint being "I didn't know the roads would be closed." despite the signs about the race having been up for the last month!

Just got back from watching the out leg and it's just started bucketing down. Walked up to Richmond Park and it was deserted. There was maybe 50 people from halfway between Richmond Gate and Kingston Gate an Kingston Gate. The whole way from Richmond to Kingston was fenced off so I think they were expecting a few more people out! Got some really good pictures that I'm now sorting through. Hopefully the weather picks up for the return leg where it passes the other end of my road.
