still need a partner though...
Daz. I think I know where the confusion has arisen. When I did the event in 2010, the cut-off at AT was 5 hours 30 mins. If you're reading the stuff off the website this has it down as 5 hours, explaining why I thought that CB was the tougher cut-off. I've just spoken to my partner for tomorrow and he reckons that this is a mistake, it's actually 5 Hours 30 mins at AT and if you look at last years results it does show a couple of pairs passing through AT after 5 hours (one a 5:21) suggesting the 5.5 hour time is correct.
