Anyone doing the 2004 Great Yorkshire Bike Ride?

[vernon levy]

The route is Wetherby to Filey and is 70 miles. Has anyone done the ride
before, are there any pitfalls?

Cheers

Vernon
hoping to complete a ride without a train journey :-)

Is there a web site anywhere? I've probably left it too late to get
organised this time - didn't realise it was so soon!

Yes there is a website, unfortunately they are fully booked with 1500
entries. There is nothing to stop you riding the same route on the same day
though, the roads are public ones after all. I am not doing it.

Except politness.

The organisers will have arranged with the police for X riders. If X + another
X random riders turn up, police will not be happy.

I'd chalk it up for next year.
