Well done Britnick, always enjoy reading your blog and viewing the great pics. Just out of interest, how did the Bullock Smithy get it's name?
Well done to Mrs.Stagger and Tea and Cake as well.

Hi Steve,
It used to be the name for Hazel Grove, where the event starts. It's all explained on this page of the BSH website.

Cheers, Steve

Thanks Andrew and Steve for all the stats, very impressive. There were quite a lot of photographers en route, will the pictures appear on the website at some stage?

Thanks Linda. Any photos should appear on the main Bullock Smithy site here - http://www.bullocksmithy.com. I see that they have some from Nick Ham already.

Cheers, Steve
