surely the question is: why would anyone ride 258 miles?

To get from A to B?

How many in 12 hours?

Because they aren't obsessed with numbers?

Because it was 250 with a Margin of error?

Right... numbers gradually swelling... Updated the web site with some new cobbled climbs. A few other people are gradually doing the route too, so getting some "positive" feed back :D

Something like:

Worrying Will
*scottie
JH
Sir Conehead
Tritans

at the moment.

CCS really wants to do it instead of a boring 22 minute ride in the flat. Might take some convincing.
Ewan needs to be persuaded that he need an escape from the pressures of work and a bike.

Scottie should have his go pro.
If I can get my contour working (still not sure why it didn't work last time) then we should have two POV films.

You just need to perfect your forward roll technique, Will.
