I am hoping to do the C2C this summer, and now I have finished my Uni Assignments before Easter, hopefully I will have a little more time for training rides.  We still haven't decided how we are getting there, but with 10 of us cycling, we should be able to have a few  differently paced groups and all go at a pace we find comfy, being the only recumbent in the group I'm expecting not to be as quick as some of the others up hill, hopefully I'll catch up on the way down.
