    Great Whernside video

    Apologies if you have already seen this but Peter Jebb asked us to make a short film of the event a few years back.
    Just might get you in the mood.....

    Thanks for the video Alan.

    A massive well done to my Peejay and all his helpers over the years.

    Sorry to hear this is your last RO.

    Hope the race goes well.

    Can't attend due to pacemaker fitting.

    Enjoy your pint �� in the afternoon Sir.

    Planning on being there - looking forward to it - it's been on the bucket list for a while.

    There used to be a prizegiving and a pint at the King's Head after this race, but this doesn't happen any more does it? Last time it was prizes in the field and no pub.

    Prize giving used to be held in the Kings Arms until it closed down a couple of years ago.
    However, it has since re-opened so that means Kettlewell is back to 3 pubs. Kings Arms, Blue Bell, Racehorses.
    I'll be in the Blue Bell for a well earned pint of Golden Pippin.
    Si thi tomorra.

    Weather forecast for the race is wet and windy, so come prepared with full body cover please.

    Prize giving will be on the field again this year.

    and.... a reminder that car parking is available on the new camp site on the Coniston Road £3 if you need it.

    Really enjoyed it today, not exactly my best performance personally but I've wanted to do this race for ages so it was worth turning up and having a crack. Some great technical descents, bit of bog, fast paths and challenging uphill grinds. Pretty much all the boxes ticked there for a classic race. Thanks PeeJay and everyone else involved.

    Had to get off pretty sharpish so no idea on the results, if anyone spotted them or took a snap please feel free to share.
