It's £78.

Which is a lot.

But otherwise it sounds like a great day out.

68 quid if you’re a BC member and pre register though.

Is second prize 2 x 100 mile closed road sportives in Norwich?

Digs at Norwich aside, a closed road event is always welcome

If it was close to York, I would look at it

But at £78 I would likely say no - as I is a meanie

I do expect it will sell out though

How do you get 1000m of climbing in Norfolk?

That's only 10m/ 30 feet of elevation change for every mile ridden. Its not hilly round here but its not billiard table flat either, especially near the coast smile

Yep, a couple of lumps should do it.
