Hi Phil
sorry I'll post when I get in from work

Thanks

Gemma

Gemma_j1983

Hi

I'll lead a C run on Sunday to flyford flavell

Same route as Andy W lead not too long ago.

Maybe a good idea if anyone can also add the route to their garmin, due to very possibility of getting lost.

Gemma

Gemma_j1983

Ive got one that's a bit bent.

Gemma_j1983

Hi Pete,

do you mean flat shoes as in trainers?

Not clipless cycle shoes?

Gemma_j1983

Yes will need to rent one.

eeerrrmmmmm good question about size, one that fits someone who is 5ft 8in.

So if I get there about 1.15 ish you can save me when I fall and break an arm? lol

Gemma_j1983

Hi,

I'll be there.
I'm doing the stage one track session at Derby in the morning, so would like to be able to race.
I'm not so sure of confidence levels though and if ill be able to.

Gemma_j1983

Is the 'normal' club run on the Saturday?

Gemma_j1983

Thanks to everyone last night, was a great race.
And to everyone who gave me loads of advice to help me improve

Gemma_j1983

Thanks
Andy!
