    Pen Y Fan / Fan Y Big

    Is anyone going from the Bath/Bristol area that would be interested in a lift share?

    Hi Helen - sorry can't help, but this makes me think perhaps should put a forum thingy onto the Brecon Fans race web site for people to share info. Probably more people are looking at that than this forum. Have had 90 people on the race web site today!
    Do you have anywhere to stay? I know some folk will be camping in Cwm Llwch, others at Priory Mill campsite in Brecon.
    see you on race day... will the Palmer-monster reclaim his crown??? Will anyone get anywhere near the record...?

    Of course no one is going to get the record Petal, the prize money will have to roll over again...

    Sadly not staying in the Priory Mill (fully booked when I got round to checking) but just down the road in Bishops Meadow. Am passing but down the M50 Helen, probably not a lot of use especially with the 3 dogs and I've just seen how much kit we've got to get in the car... :w00t:

    Looking forward to tomorrow's race.

    If anything like last time I'll be the one rolly-pollying from the summit to the stream!

    In a moment of madness last night I booked a bed at Danywenallt Youth Hostel for the Fan y Big / Pen y Fan weekend -- although I haven't done anything quite as stupid as entering the races . . . yet.

    Sounds like the next logical step

    It's the best way round this year as well - the longer Fan y Big on the Saturday and the short and very sharp Pan y Fan on the Sunday :-)
