    Fellsman preparations

    I have entered the fellsman for the first time, posted off yesterday :w00t:
    There is a lot of good advice/info on previous threads re routes to take etc, I was wondering if anyone is free in the next few months to recce the problem area - fleet moss to cray via middle tongue?
    Thanks in anticipation, Mark

    Good point! I didn't realise it changes quite so often. How soon before the race do you typically receive the handbook/route/grid refs? Thanks

    Re: Fellsman preparations

    So would I, particularly fleet moss to cray via middle tongue as I'm likely to be doing that part in the dark! Ideally 2 cars so we can leave one at one end and drive back from the cray area after. Saturdays would be best if anyone interested. Egor, I'm close to Leeds near Pool in fact. Would also need to be a nice slow pace, I'm no speed demon!
