    BG on 17/18 August help needed

    I am attempting a Bob Graham Round on Friday 17th August with a 1700hr start on a clockwise 23.30hr schedule, but unfortunatley my navigator for leg 4 has had to drop out. Is there anyone out there who can help me? I need a navigator for either leg 3 or leg 4 as my navigator for leg 3 can swap and do leg 4, I had an attempt in May but due to bad conditions on Leg 2 I lost a lot of time but decided not to abort and continued and finished just under 28 hours

    I've emailed a friend of mine who is a leg 4 specialist, don't know if he's free, worth a shot, I'm due to support someone else on leg 4 the same weekend. If not may be able to get up and support you Jon, dependant on a lift at the moment though, not confident enough to nav though, what time are you due at Wasdale?

    Hi Steve

    Jon,

    That'll be two of us then. I'm going for attempt #2 on the 17th also, leaving at 1800.
