Dumb Run

Ravenbait · April 2007

As I've got very few confirmed people coming, I'm not going to try to arrange halfway catering. I'll bring my Pocket Rocket and some teabags. Feel free to do similar [;)].

I'm still hunting for somewhere that opens early in St Andrews for brekkie. Anyone with local knowledge who might know of such a place, let me know.

We need to get a recce of the route from Dumbarton to the Forth - I know the way from there. I would seriously like to have that done by the end of next month (May) at the latest. I meant to have it done already, but I've been really busy. Also, it's unlikely that we'll have candle fairies on this one, so it's going to be a route-sheet, map and headtorch kind've a gig.

If you are intending to come and haven't yet put your name on the list, please do so because I need to know numbers.

If you don't put your name on the list I won't print you a sheet [}:)]. We're still needing local volunteers to recce route sections between Dumbarton and the Forth Bridge.

Mememememe but I can't recce 'cos I are in Devon.

Wanted: Penny farthing! Mail me if you've got one for sale...
It is by will alone I set my ride in motion.

Only 2 weeks to go folks. Last chance.

Dumbarton - St Andrews, overnight, aiming to hit the Forth Bridge by dawn. 116 miles, give or take. Should be quite a ride.

23rd June.

See here for further info.

I'm printing off the sheets tomorrow.

I'm going to assume that everyone's doing the Etape instead. Still. Never mind. More beer for us then [:D].

We did it without you. So nyer [^].

Find a few photos here.

Well done to the intrepid few who took part and I look forward to seeing you again next year.
