Another hazard to be aware of: &amp;gt;<br /><br />On William Nicol, just before the left into Republic, there is a very ugly expansion joint....why ugly? <br /><br />Well, it doesn't cross the road, it runs parallel to the centre line and is about three or four metres long.....just the trick for thin wheels travelling at speed.<br /><br />If you were in a large bunch, you might not see it until.....also, beware of others swerving around it or crashing as a result of the front wheel disappearing into it.<br /><br />Good luck everyone, and don't forget to write your forum names on your numbers! <br /><br />Mutt'n

That joint will be covered with conveyor belt on the day, so no worries.<br /><br />btw: like the avatar, Mutt'n

I registered today. Nice race brochure but there is NO ROUTE MAP in there! :'( Also on the official website I cannot get the maps and profile to enlarge so I can't print them. :'( No, I shouldn't get lost! ;D I'll just follow the other 20000 odd bikes! ;D Actually I've got the route pretty well imprinted in my mind and I'm spending a lot of time mentally riding it. Still it would be nice to study the maps while being horizontal. ;D
