Just completed first ever cyclo-sportive on 15th June. First ever cyclo-anything. Did the Cairngorm 100. Although the time of 7hrs 22 didnt set the heather on fire its still a finish. Have to thank the 7 hour plan in the spring edition for getting me there. The summer edition arrived just in time to give the nutritional advice needed.
One downside. I have developed a dose of food poisoning which I think is related to the "hot food" provided post event. There will unfortunately be a slight delay before moving on to the summer programme

Well done. Has it given you the bug to sign up for a few more this year?

The Cairngorm classic was my first sportive as well - and only my second time riding up cairngorm - which doesn't sound to bad to most, but seeing as I am in Cairngorm CC and grew up at the foot of it it is pretty shocking!
Shame abut the weather but I would definately do it again next year.

Here's some pics from it if anyone is interested.
