Great route and food
Lovely event, a bit like moonrakers and sunseekers but during the day! My second helping and will be back for more.
Brilliant day out
Stunningly simple yet effective organisation. Great atmosphere. Scenic landscape. Cake. Lots of cake.
Copious quantities of cake
A fantastic route with great organisation and controls
A great day out
Excellent, as ever: organisation, route, views, weather – and superb food options. Thank you!
Super Event as always.
This is such a cracking event. The people who do it are chilled and having fun mostly fuelled by excellent cake.
