    :x

    Hope you are listening Whyte :idea: :lol:

    I hope the route taken by our catergories dosen't miss out the best (and therefore most technical) parts of the red run - because if it does (shakes fist) :lol:

    Nah, the organisation of this looks top, aslong as I can find a way to carry everything. - don't really want to wear a backpack, camelback in a saddlebag anyone? :lol:

    I'll see what bottle comnbinatios I can rig up, can't use the downtube mount though because a 750ml bottle won't fit due to the frame.

    I'm a bit of a wreck, not been on my bike since that road ride.

    Same here, though I went out on the blender for a mess around today, had to walk back with a puncture :x .

    And I've cleaned my bike, it looks all professional now :lol:

    Yeah haha, do you know if we get there a bit earlier we can ride round the track before the race?
  • Whytepeak
    Whytepeak Posts: 2,616
    Yeah, but you don't get much time, and I'd have to get up earlier. :roll:

    Yeah, you get half an hour, just seen it now. I think I'll have to get up early and just give it a quick run.

    I'll probably fall off on the trial run. lol.

    :lol:

    Or get sooo tired...

    I want to get there early, as parking will not be fun with 200 other cars, recon there is space for 27 :lol:

    I've already ridden the route the race is based on, as you know :wink: , but I'm not sure how much of the red route the tiny tots category does. :roll:

    Thanks Stealthy, I'll probably be on my way then.

    If I don't see you before the race then good luck!

    Getting nervous now lol
