Me and my brother are doing 2011 miles for 2011 and i'd be keen to have Barry along for some of it!
I'd be up for taking him to;
MK Half on Sunday 13th March 2011 or Shakespeare Marathon on Sunday 8th May
Can i just join in or is there an initiation...?
You can just join in David, although you may need to liaise with Duckinator via PM (you'll need to switch you messaging service on as it's currently off) to see if he has the date yet for the event he is doing in May if you'd prefer to have Barry with you then. Although as no-one has booked Barry yet for March it may be an easier solution to have him for the MK half instead??
I'll update the list once you decide which event you would like him for
Hi,
Just looked up the Aberdeen event and it looks like an end of May date usually so i'll have BtB for Shakespeare please...! He'd prefer a full Mara i guess!
(I have switched on PM's)

Woody -have you got a contact email for this years Cornish Marathon?
I could let them know they have a special guest. they may announce it too. I can also plug our next event
Sorry Stu can't find one but their website has telephone contacts on it, it's a small low key event.
Hi David glad to have you on board, are you aware of the rules for taking Barry? Ignore me if you are, but a few rules were put in place to maintain Barry's safe return as Follows
Hi, i read the entire thread before dipping my toe in the water and am happy to follow the rules.....
Number 1 confuses me though? I'm neither a coaster or an NI runner...
Can someone explain?
Hi David,
we opened that rule because we did not want any joker kidnapping Barry. However I am certain you would like to join the next coasters challenge, therefore we could call you a coaster
Found this Stu for Cornish Marathon, Dave Clatworthy is the race director

good question strag.
maybe we should have focussed on these little adventures this year. That would have give us time to reflect on 2010 rather than plan 2011 to death too soon at the expense of "genuine" fun IMHO
Hmm well he could stay with me, or I can post him special delivery, to the next on the list but I've not got an address to send to yet.
He's been getting a bit fed up of late so I've brought my motorbike in for him to play on, he's been made up ever since, pretending he's some biker type tearing up the twist back roads.
Stu - you could be right, maybe we've been too impatient for another adventure!
W2R - Strange - he looks silver in the photo? He's not glamming up for Christmas is he? He can have a ride on my Honda CBF600N when he's with me, but he'll need more than a scarf to keep warm!
Strag -it is understandable because we all enjoyed coasters2010 (well 99% of us). We could throw the idea on main thread if you like. We can do some great Barry promo in 2011 whilst he visits places. It will be a lot easier in 2012 to do an event with that visibility behind us too
I have thrown idea on thread
I wnat that bike woody
