Morning all. Has anyone done the Woburner?

I know it's #makingJohnLuntRich but it's cheaper than Weymouth.

Certainly will #makeJohnLuntRich at £160. Never done it, but it's at that time of year when there's loads going on. That price point is halfway between the high end Weymouth all the trimmings big ticket/big event and a small local event, but I suspect what's delivered is more small time.

It'll be a nice event for sure, but the Vitruvian (£134) would be higher on my list that particular weekend, or I'd go a couple of weeks earlier with the Ely Monster (£110).

I did the Vit last year and was underwhelmed.

I shall investigate the Ely Monster.

I thought Vitruvian was lovely. Apart from the hills...

If Beeber was still here he'd be having a fit that nobody has suggested the 'obvious' Vit/Weymouth alternative:

I always found the Vit lovely apart from some traffic build up in lap 2 of the bike.

First year I did it the sun came up over the Reservoir just as we were waiting to start and it was stunning.

Glennfold, there are no hills on the bike, only ripples....
