Mr Ching,
Hello, this is quite a good idea, and I'm keen to enter - especially so as its not very far from where I live.
I think it would be very useful to have a September race that complemented the Tour de Prestiegne - and with the race run on a slightly different basis.
That said, however, I've got a few questions:
How are you going to run it on the same day as the Tour of Britain?
If its on the public roads then there are all sorts of issues, of which the question of road legal versus derestricted is only one.
To be honest, a 100+ mile, 4 battery run sounds too long. Something about half that might make a good race. A 100 mile event might be better configured as an endurance type event - with each competitor allowed only a certain number of Watt-hours and having to carefully manage them.
Above all though, I would like it to be both good-natured and well run.
I hope that helps; I'm trying to contribute to the discussion rather than criticise.
Nick
