I have entered the Etape Du Tour for the first time and am lucky enough to have had my entry accepted (Thanks to Ron Cutler and his excellent advise).
However, I have not given accomodation or logistics any thought whatsover and stupidly did not consider the fact that the start and end were 125 miles apart (too many years of Mountain biking and loops).
So, I am wondering whether I am too late to book a place at the finish in a campsite and somehow get to the start and stay in a hotel the night before. Or, is it all too late and will I find accomodation fully booked ?
Any advice from veteran (experience not age !) entrants greatly appreciated.
