25th Isle of Wight RANDONNEE – 100km Bike Ride

Last Sunday Myself, Jill, Rory, Nick, Danny & Greg met up at the Fastcat at some ungodly hour to take the short trip over to the Isle of Wight to take part in the 25th Isle of Wight 100km RANDONNEE.

2156 cyclists took part this year, up from 1644 in 2008. Of the 2156 riders, 1851 took part in the 100km ride and 305 in the 55km ride. Needless to say we got involved and smashed the 100km and chucked on a few extra miles to make it a round 115km.

A much harder and way hillier ride than any of us expected but we all finished, got our certificates, collapsed and all with a ride time of just over 4.5 hours.

Pop over to my Flickr to see all the photos from the day.
