    You know how you get yourself a mental picture of someone based on what they say and what they give away in their posts? well my mental picture of Nap D was as his avatar, I'm quite disorientated now I've seen what he really looks like :lol:

    That was my thought on seeing the photos on here too :lol:

    Glad to hear you're planning your return to the Little Mountain already NapD. The provisional date you should put in your diary is Sunday 24th April. That goes for everyone else too of course....... SBezza, Bexslack, RichK, RichieG, Ma123. Have I missed anyone? Wonder if we can get an even bigger turnout of forumites next year. :D

    Of course Jeff Jones of this parish won the 1st Roadman prize in 2009 too......... there have been some very impressive performances by Bikeradar folk in the last couple of years!

    Cheers Ruth, I do need to plan ahead a lot regarding leave and what have you! I'll book that weekend off next time I'm in work, keep us updated ASAP!

    24th April will be perfect, don't have a horrible long weekend then with running the sportive on Bank Holiday Monday :D

    I certainly will be back (as long as I am fit of course :wink: )
  • If I haven't been relocated to Ireland or Mongolia by then, then I'd like to have a go too, hopefully will be 5kg lighter than now, and that's already 5-6 kgs lighter than this last April.

    Great Steve. I'm sure you'll love it.............. at least, when it's OVER!

    Excellent! I'll do my best to lure along some more elite riders to give you plenty of competition. You vs SBezza will be a good Bikeradar forum head-to-head anyway.

    It was my first LMTT last year and all in all it was a great day (apart from that wind :shock: ), im looking forward to next year now & after having several months off the bike not racing at all (due to parental responsibilities & work) im gonna have to work hard over the winter.
