Some questions to ask yourself
1 Do my tyres have enough life left in them for 1000 miles?
2 Is my chain well adjusted?
3 Are my brake pads up to the job?
4 Am I mentally in the right place for the challange?
5 Is my riding kit warm and waterproof? It can get cold riding at night in the rain.
6 Have I made sure I understand the route and rules for the ride?
7 Have I started a Just giving page or joined the group page?
8 Or am I using a sponsorship form?
9 What will be my strategy for eating and drinking?
10 Have I thought about making best use of rest stops?
11 Have I tried a couple of longer than normal rides?
12 Am I practicing efficient fuel stops so they become 2nd nature?
13 Have I got ear plugs not only for the ride but also the camp site on Friday night?
If you have unanswered questions post them here and somebody will help. Others will then learn from the answers.
