Re: 100 mile C run Sunday June 27th RIDE FULL

Hi Dave,

Assume the run is full, but may be interested if someone drops out, and would only be going to Defford, and pick you up at Tardebigge. Not up to doing 100 miles at the moment, but need to start extending my range. I may sign up to the other C run.

Hi Jess,

I will be available, if there are any jobs or marshalling that you need doing. I also have some signs and marshals flags that need to be returned to their keeper, which I can bring on the day.

Phil, not by accident, if you look back at an early posting about Knighton you requested places for the three of you. George and Simon will put you down for 1 possibly 2. Is it something about club chairman and ex-club chairman?
