Redhill YMCA Sportive 4th September
This was the second sportive I have entered and was organised by Redhill cycle club and the YCMA with profits going to the YMCA’s Sovereign Appeal to benefit local children with disabilities and their families.
I choose the mid route (109km / 66Miles). The route was generally pleasant, well signed and mostly avoiding main roads. The weather remained dry for about the first 60 miles, then the rain that had been threatening all day came. This led me to miss a sign just after Outwood Mill and head back towards the A25.
I ended up doing about 70 miles (and being very wet), so was happy with my finish time of 4 hours 33 minutes 30 seconds.
