Nice medal and jersey this year.

I decided to ride the DC to compare it against the Fred Whitton
I’m from Windermere and very used to climb steep climbs, although these climbs are moderately steep they are long and tough
So my overall view on the DC Grande is it’s just as tough as the Fred

Great event well organised

Thanks to all the volunteers who were friendly and encouraging throughout the course, which was well marshalled and sign posted.
Feed stations had good variety and well stocked.

Friendly, challenging and really well organised event and I’ll be back for my third one next year.
