tbh, I've been dithering about it for ages and I know deep down I'm not really fit enough and with a holiday in Spain next week I'm unlikely to get into shape. I think really even at £60 quid for the 4 days it's still good value, just the other half doesn't understand these things!

10%ers? I didn't sign up for that!
Starting to think bike logistics for this now. What to do about drinks? Normally ride with up to 2 big bottles. I do have a behind the seat thingy I could attach meaning I could take 4 bottles, but also have a camelbac. Although I've never used the camelbac for cycling and not sure I want it on my back all day every day. obviously buying drink on route is possible, but trying to keep cost to minimum.

Brilliant. At these points do we have to pay for drink? Ie are they pubs/shops.
