This will be interesting with over 40 cyclists taking part in it. Should make this a yearly event. It is really an endurance ride and a baptism of ride for most as the distance to be completed in 8 to 10 hours inclusive of rest is quite daunting. After this distance you will feel very confident in tackling any road ride be it imperial or metric century, malakoff, round island, interstate etc etc.
As in most long distance road ride in the tropic, the afternoon heat is the greatest obstacle and it can get so hot that drenching oneself with open tap will not cool you down. refer to this link on our previous ride last year.
