2014 Fixtures are up, where does Giggleswick go?
Note the new kit rules.
I'm off up for Birkrigg tommorrow (nearly today tbh). Bet the tesco's peddy station in ilkley has run out of croissants and i have to settle for dry bread and coffee.
Mr B, please come over and have a chat. It's always good to put faces to names. I'll probably be the only one wearing a black n white stripped vest.
Mr, the have baked goods like croissants etc in the Co-op in Addingham ;) 'sticks isn't hard to spot ;)
Nice day for it, gutted as taking eldest back to uni and birkrigg is only a couple of miles away, anyway good luck to all, be sure to check out the beaker stone circle :-)
Freshly baked are they? The stodgy packaged ones are a bit sickly.Quote:

Yep. Other option is the bacon butty and a coffee deal at the Fleece deli - £2-50Quote:

Tim Noakes would say yes to the bacon but no to the bread.
Important message for any seniors entering races has gone up on the HHR website and was reiterated at the weekend.
I'm going to give this deli place a whirl tommorrow, should be there for around 09.15-09.30 if you want to catch a lift up to Fairmile? No dogs though.Quote:

Some awesome pics from the summit at Fairmile
First XC race since my school days for me this sunday. I've burgled Noel's shed so i'll be up to my eyeballs with goofy juice, Rob Jebb better bring his a-game.
Blimey Charlie, that was a bit of a lung buster, i've done easier fell races than that. Usual hazards in excess; mud, bogs, relentless heavy rain, more mud, going round in circles...did i mention the mud? Some sharp little climbs put paid to any hopes i might have had at a good finish. Looking back at my school days i used to be an XC specialist......how the mighty fall.....sod it specialisation is for insects- i'm mediocre at everything and loving it. Did anybody notice how muddy it was??
It's that time of year again. Is Scout Scar Sunday 3rd?
Just looked on helm hill.co.uk and scout scar is the first race as usual.

Bit muddy today, didn't seem to be slowing tom addison down much though. I had a good descent down to the cow 'oyl but didn't have the legs to keep pushing back up the final climb and lost the position of 3rd lady. Cheers to the photographers that were out today, nasty conditions for expensive cameras.
The mud seemed to be stickier than ever today - a well organised event as is usual with KWL.
Scout Scar results
It was horrible today, never seen it so wet and muddy. Hey Wharfee, how about popping up them pics of you, me, Mr Lambert and Mr Gibson all with 'Firbank face'? That being a face you make when you have not enjoyed what just took place!
It was a great day for Firbank, just how it should be. I don't call it sh!tbank for nothing.Quote:

Mr G's not impressed, the rain was torrential at that point.
Haha, first time for me on Firbank fell and despite the overdose of mud I thoroughly enjoyed it. Then again, I did manage to just about get to my car before the hail began...Quote:

There's a lot to be said for good facilities at a fell race, good work Helm Hill.
I had to laugh when I saw Mr Breeze walking back to the race HQ - to get a copy of the results!
Whitestone next week, from what i remember there'll be about enough stodge for you there.
You've forgotten that I'm doing the cross country at Golden Acre.Quote:
