Chavtastic!!!

Felt like an extra in an episode of'Benidorm'!!!!

Almost got a tattoo so I wouldn't be the odd one out (and that includes, especially, the women)!!!!

On plus side - not seen a cloud, let alone rain, in 2 weeks - am v. brown! Would have been even darker except for ginger family lurking in shade making me feel guilty for having a full stock of melonin under my epidermis

Did you get to the mountainous bit in the middle, away from the lager louts? Excellent cycling country.

Out of pity I've just looked at the website - late entry £20, but you might not get a T shirt or medal [horrors!]

Basically if you rock up and want to give them money, I'm very sure they won't turn you away.
