    Looking at the route for this on Mapmyride it looks fairly flatish(wrong), anyone able to share how it rides?

    Edit: not as flat as it looked it seems.

    Did it last year. No climbs as such but it is a draggy circuit with opportunity for dishing or receiving some pain.

    Worth travelling for? Be a 4hr round trip for me.

    Saw a brief video and finish looks long and safeish. Has it a rep for a crash fest do you know?

    Was it the same story again in A4 was due to go but was not feeling up to it so gave it a miss. Didn't think that there would be over a 100 in seems it was a on line entry

    Bit pointless having a online entry and taking sign ons on the day sound's like a real money money thing

    110, mother of God. Fine weather draws them in.
    We had 60 in Tipp today and all safe as houses in the bunch gallop but still couldn't get it right...

    Think I'll gamble on it and hope for a sub 70 field. Races are getting thin after next two weeks.
