Map
We are going to visit the tent at QE, tried it out today and tea was really quite good, though choice of cakes is limited. Ride is 44k, little less than normal as its the first one of the year, with a climb of 444m.
The roads are really mucky, with lots of nasties washed on the surface, so make certain your tyres are in good order as there have been several sightings of the dreaded p***ture fairy!
