Rob Brockwell completes L'Etape du Tour

MDCC's Rob Brockwell even though suffering from a lack of training miles recently  finished the arduous L'Etape du Tour today. In scorching heat  over a course of 181 km taking in 3 climbs including the Col du Tourmalet, Rob finished in 4824th place out of nearly 7000 finishers. His time for this ultimate sportive was 10:18:03. His time for the Tourmalet was 2:31:52. We hope to have Rob's story of his ride  in the next couple of days.

Second claim member and regular '10' rider Paul Todd finished half an hour after Rob in 10:50:06 giving him 5705th place. He got up the Tourmalet quicker in 2:24:45.

The winner finished in just under 6 hours while the  last rider took almost 12 hours.

Well done to both of them. What about putting together our biggest team ever to ride the 2011 version?
