Congratulations to Ed and all his team of helpers (or was it leppers climbing on the band wagon - NO IT DEFINITELY WAS NOT), especially the Mitchell family and Graham for helping Ed carry the paste board from Rykers to top of Box Hill and congratulations to Gary Dodd for his usual masterful sub 2 hr time (1hr. 50min) fabulous for such an old boy. I guess the biggest cheer should go to Simon (L3) and his long suffering wife for marshalling at the most tricky point, Hoe Lane or was it How Lane and for the tremendous pre-publicity he generated to attract another record number of riders. Photo above shows L3 with 2 of the oldest riders en-route stopping for a chat and just missing the cut at 3hrs (by one minute). The guy in the middle was down as a Wayfarer (more like a wayward fellow) and the guy on the right with the matching blue top is Ubaldo commonly known as Toni (or is it Tagliatelli) - well anyway he comes from the country where Spagetti grows on trees.
