    Good luck to those setting out this weekend esp Pete James attempting husband and wife round. and Richard Gilbert.

    Not had any responses to this, so my working plan is to solo legs 1 and 2.

    Start time:
    Saturday 25th at 6 or 7pm
    or 2am Sunday. depending on weather.

    Any supporters to assist with legs 1 or 2 welcome.

    Hi

    It may be the pace putting people off, I'd happily help on slower round but would struggle to b. I'm sure I could help you out but for the fact that I'd not keep up, especially on descents in dark. Don't rule me out though and post on here your plans as sure I could help for a bit even if I had to drop off somewhere along the way
