As I was going to Derby - Trad

Yes, it was a trip into Derby today from Markeaton to follow the Bonnie Prince Charlie Way into the city... only it's not that easy as ALL the signs are missing. Ring a bell with Nottingham? Anyway, we are going to mark out the route from Ashbourne and make it so that maps will not be necessary... famous last words eh? But we are signing ALL of this one.

Fitness First is now qualified as our finish point and the run in from Markeaton into the city is really lovely and such a change from the peaks of yesterday's tandem ride. (Yes my backside is still killing me!)

The different aspects of the race are coming together nicely and hopefully you are getting a clearer picture of what we are trying to create here. If you are local maybe you might have some input... let us know.

More tomorrow...
