I recommend Scoffer's map available from Pete Bland Sports. It's about £2.50 I think. Worth ordering if you getting something else too.:)
Yes that's right, the one I think is spring bank holiday, it should be the weekend of the 26/27/28, off the top of my head I think.Quote:

Sorry Graeme, Hutton Roof Crags saturday and Chorley 10 mile sunday for me (on the club calendar) so it's a no can do:(
That and my 8 year old is going scuba diving on the saturday for the 1st time and I don't want to be too far away - just in case:eek:
is it entry on the day only???
Might fancy this, read about it in that feet up your arse book!
Nevermind I'm sure there'll be a least one more, I've been told to recce the section from Gable to Honister as many times as possible.Quote:

Hutton Roofs the last bank holiday in May??
Apparently so. I figured being as I've either missed, or will probably be missing most of the races in the club championship I might as well miss them all, except the lakes races.Quote:

Bull Hill OK, Harrock Hill ?????, all the rest no worries. I'm going to miss by one event. And no I can't come back off holiday to do the Two Towers.
For my sins yes. They seem to think I have potential.Quote:
