I'll be using my very well worn super fast rolling high roller at the back and a lesran TT at the front 
Some mates who did it last year said they did the whole thing in thier big(44t) chainring, has anyone else found this in previous years?

you could do most of the course in the big ring, there is a climb on the grass that I reckon would be a strugle (or you'd be in 44/34)
