2009 Gong Ride
Can anyone give me advice on which bike I should use for the 2009 Gong Ride? Road or Hybrid?
I haven't done this ride before but have lots of experience riding similar events in the UK, but with fewer numbers. Sounds like the going will be fairly slow at the beginning unless I'm lucky and get off very early. If the going is slow it negates the need for a super fast road bike so I may as well take it w=easy on the comfy bike and enjoy the views.
What about starting late? Would that avoid some of the early bunching and allow me ride at a reasonable pace?
The distance and hills don't bother me at all.

Hehe...
You only need to look at my pictures to see that I enjoy the challenge of riding impossible bikes in unusual circumstances.
But I just couldn't resist hacking out on a hybrid....
