Geez, looking at all the experience on the boards is a bit overwhelming.
However, endurance is what I've spent years doing, rarely even touch sprint races, but lived in the sticks with bad internet connection (BT) and had so many kicks for high ping or disconnects, now I'm a city slicker with soooperfast fibre, bring it on!
