they bloody won't be after the dynamo....to sum up last year...rained for the first 70 miles....turned my brooks into a piece of rag hanging from the rails....did it brakeless fix and then found that lovely long downhill...in the rain....with traffic lights at the bottom....which turned to red....wasn't stopping for shit...:)
never been so cold in my entire life as i was when i left the halfway soup stop....thought my knees were gonna explode....BUT....was one of the best rides of my life....and met some of the coolest people ever....almost all off here....bring it on i say....:)
