Great summary, info-hub, and checklist here from Konrad Manning on the RoadCycling site
My base fitness seems good though and race day will be about pushing hard on the climbs and concentrating on the descents. The area has had a wet September and heavy rain in the past few days. All the indicators are that I’ll struggle to match my PB from 2009, but I hope that I now have the race experience to get me round in under four hours and possibly in the top 20 veteran finishers once again.
