I put in my entry for Trans-Provence a couple of times. Didn't get in. I think I could have finished better than last, but I guess I will never know since this year was the last one. :(

True, but word is that the guy who runs it has something new and even tougher up his sleeve.

I'm about 10 years past needing "tougher" than the Trans Provence!

That race diary is great. Crazy to think Geoff Kabush was Canadian National Champion or something wasn't he. He finished 9th but he makes it sound like he was just hanging on.

This looks far to ambitious for me, but that's not a surprise to anyone in our circles.
I like this description in the opening line:
"Best described as a scrappy rolling picnic through Britain’s ever-changing landscapes.”
