Hello Dean, I'm doing the race too, as is my boyfriend and I think George is too. I'm not sure my plans yet but I'll PM you my number and we can keep in touch.
Doing the sprint starting at 6am, ouch!
I'm staying over night obviously.
Be good to catch up for a bite, I'll PM you my details.
You do know the bike racking closes at 16:30 on Saturday.
