You coming with us Andrew

ok - i was only trying to get an idea of how far it is to get there (and in which direction - really haven't got a clue!)

Earlier post Paul, I have a 10.

Not having a go about the course info etc really as I appreciate how much of a nightmare it is to administer, and also the issue concerning handbook sales - personally I think people would still buy them so sales wouldn't get hugely knocked and you could increase average race price from Â£7 to Â£7.50 to cover it too.

Are you really going to drive up in the morning Sylv? I'm looking at going for a B&B as it'd be say a 2hr drive. With a start time of 5:20am it would be a nightmare way to start the day just before a 12hr, like something out of Endurance.

Any old excuse :mrgreen:

Sylv,
Last year, HQ was [url=http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=553500&y=242500&z=5&sv=553500,242500&st=4&ar=Y&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf&dn=644&ax=553500&ay=242500]here[/url] with course basically to the North and North East towards Newmarket.

Cheers Jon, although I'm not sure you can count it as "a good night's sleep" if you have to be there and ready to start at 5.20 :lol:

I think Jon might has a point. the other week I rode a 100 up there my start time was 5.05am I got up there in plenty of time, well too early as I got stopped for suspicious driving at 4am around the hq and start area by the rozzers who were bored.

A travel inn would only alow you say 1 hour extra in bed and you've got the added worry of bike security in the vehicle and no porrige,toast and coffee etc.

I think I'm just gonna get my head down well early instead.

So just drink a bottle of red wine (it's good for the heart) at lunchtime the day before to get a good sleep in first, gotcha.

No skinsuit though!

by **Andrew G** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 3:50 pm

Just wanted to check you knew that next month it is a 12 hour time trial, not a 12 mile one. :roll:

by **Sylv** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 5:00 pm

I wouldn't bother with the hassle of fitting new bars and extensions for 12 miles :lol:

by **George** » Fri Aug 01, 2008 9:08 am

Paul can we take a route through Shipley and Coolham on the way back from Brighton :lol:

Are you taking your Ordnance Survey Guru Tom Tom?
