The Ben Race

[Stick]

Anybody whos intrested a few of us get together in the Imperial hotel bar on Friday night before the race where we have a sweepstake, You put a pound in and have a guess at your finishing time, We meet at the same place after the presentation on Sat night about nine and present the nearest to their finishing time with the total of all entries. Its quite intresting to see the differences in estimated to actual.

So let's make that an unofficial forum-gathering gang! Say 8:00pm Friday evening at the Imperial

The Imperial always used to be the unofficial fell drinking hole post race. Wheeze PB 1 :49. Enjoy!

Pre AND post for us Wharfedalers for the past N years! Good forum record there Wheeze. Wonder if any of us'll get any where near it (I know for sure I wont!)

I think its the early zig zags...Also Ran gave me a good tip for a short cut...but thats our secret !!!!!!!!

Right. So, I'm on yer shoulder till half way to Red Burn then!

AARRGH! I want to come and watch the race and join in the celebrations after! But have got to run a stupid relay round Leeds on the sunday lunchtime! AAARRRGH! anyone taking a jumbo jet up that can drop me off somehwere over NW Leeds with a parachute?

Don't worry Daleside, we'll (try, really very hard) not to tell you what a good weekend you're missing (...at least we will if we get down again in one piece )

Nooooooooooooooooo, I hate camping in the rain
The weather won't make any difference to my time anyway.

Yuk. There goes my hot-sunny-weather hoped for advantage for getting near Grifter.
