Got a bit to tell from todays Sportive 'The Wyre Forest Stinger' so I will break it down into three posts - If I may.
Section 1: Arrived early at the Stourport Sports Centre - good sign on & friendly greeting, not too many riders though which was a little disappointing I noted only 112 last night on the internet. Maybe the negative forum comments from last years ride had taken its toll, we would see. Ride off was at 9.00 for the mini-stinger, we actually set off at about 5 past 9, everything began well and we were soon through the first 50 Km - a good early pace despite a very blustery wind which was intent on buffeting us for the whole ride. The first feed station was welcome with a decent spread of cakes sandwiches fruit & the like - So far so good!
