    Welcome Mr Elf

    Your young-un is too quick for me and says his daddy is good at going up and poor at going down. Mrs Elf just smiled.

    Well done on an excellent run today

    With six (at least) V60 in front of me I need something special for next year.

    What do I think Graham? I think that if the owner of the land does it the same route as everyone else then thats good enough for me.

    I was very impressed with his tractor handling skills yesterday though, considering that he arrived at the race on it towing a 40 foot trailer behind. I thought it was the Wharfedale 'arriers team bus at first!

    What happened in 2006? Looking at the past results the times for 2006 seem to reflect a much shorter course?

    Smile Re: Great Whernside

    When I did this race last year, for the first time, it immediately became one of my favourites. After yesterday it's now definitely the BEST race in the calendar, that I've done. Many thanks to the organisers and marshals, well done!

    It was the bad weather route which turned back at Hag Dyke rather than the summit. I've always wanted to give this race a go. I've been reading up a lot about it on these here forums and elsewhere
