I spoke to Giles about having proper marshalls who filter off from the front of the pack to block off junctions onto our route until we have all passed and then ride up through the fleet again and repeat. IS that happening? Also are we having pacemakers at the front and some people at the rear checking we dont loose anyone? Hi vis jackets good for marshalls and making motorists listen to you.

Ive been on the big skates through the city and they handle it really well. Im sure youve got it all under control. Can anyone confirm if we have a police escort?

Im just thinking safety, credibility, and pre-empting my parents concerns....!

PS Thanks for those that helped me contact Hael. I also tried to contact Seeds, who's boss's wife saw the accident. Anyone help me on that one? Big thank you.

Have you had a look in the private thread for Seeds mobile number?

I have spoken to our friends in the police and they are happy with the plans for the day and see no need to provide a police escort.
We have the marshalls as Ray said, they will ensure folk get through the junctions, stay on route and deal with any irrate car drivers. I'll have a chat to you before on the day and introduce you to those that will help out
