Report

We were very fortunate with beautiful conditions; dry, no wind and getting warm but fortunately just not hot enough that I didn’t regret the lack of a cap of sun cream. Underfoot was very dry, so there wasn’t a great deal of difference between the road and trail, of which there felt like a relatively even mix. The route is certainly undulating but none of the hills went on for too long to take too much out of the legs. We took our own fluids and I think used 5 gels and a bar each.
