Is anyone else considering this event?

It would be my first Sportive but I feel I could do the 82mile Epic as I regularly do 50+mile solo runs. What is the terain like round Silverstone?

The only thing against it is that the weather in late October might be a little inclement!

Could be tempted (subject to any future Radio 5 live commitments wink) as I'm still looking for an event to replace the ill-fated Silverstone 24....

Not far from me, would be my first attempt at anything like that, only been riding for about a month after not having been on a bike for about 8 years. Did manage a 24 mile ride over the weekend so I'd like to think I could tackle something longer. Might also make it easier for me to slip a road bike purchase past the other half if she thinks I'm taking this seriously.

If this is an elaborate joke and I end up cycling round Northamptonshire in the pissing rain one Sunday in October there will be trouble....

Could be worse, it could be riding down a mountain through a hail storm in Wales during May!
