A few friends are thinking of doing this 3 day sportive down south in May.
325 miles in three days is the full route but there are a few options.
Just wondered if anyone fancied it: http://pendragon-cc.com/sports/node/16

Strongly recommended, fabulous countryside and some really tough climbs. Tijl came 9th or 11th in 2008, awesome.

Its quite a long way to go but the multi stage element intrigues me, should be a bit more used to back to back riding after our trip.
Is there anything else like this up north that anyone can do rather than proper BC races?

August bank holiday
Sat - ride to Bala with panniers and set up tent
Sun - ride the Wild Wales Challenge (undoubtedly go over the Bwlch y Groes (or however you spell it) at least once)
Mon - pack tent, ride home
