I didn’t get any emails or my numbers before the race, so having never done a cycling event I wasn’t sure where to go/why to do/where I needed to be and at what time. Having said that really enjoyed it.

Rode 14th may 2023, signage great up too feed stop. No warning of it approaching they were missing the feedstation sinage.. another issue was an error in either the final GPS or signage at Metheringham heath lane. One arrow at the start of the lane thats it, no repeaters then a GPS instruction to turn right down High Dyke Rose cottage lane into Coleby. We wollowed the GPS route knowing it was the most current. Zero signage on this section till we met a green sign on Broughton lane at thecend of Castle lane.We dont know if the GPS was wrong or the Signage but we cycled 61 miles instead of 60..

The route and direction were really good, however the mid way fuelling station was poorly signed and everybody I spoke to on the medium route was not able to see / use this, resulting in them having to complete the course without a refuel.
