I'll do my best for the photos. I'll be wearing a pirate t shirt and stood near the junction of A6-Dawson lane in whittle le woods. I'll let you hero's know on this forum what photos have come out . Any Chorley tri people let me know your numbers I'll snap you as well . New camera needs a workout .

We've decided on The Black Dog in Belmont for the bike and Blue Boar on Deansgate for the run for my friends and family. They'll be hammered by the end. Brilliant moment whilst looking round the bike course for best pub/locations. Whilst driving over Sheep House Lane the Mrs was commenting on how difficult it looks- cue a bloke near the top losing the battle with gravity on his way up. Me- 'yeah it's pretty tough'

There's a pub somewhere on the course, near whittle-le-woods I think, called "Dog Inn".

Black dog is quality for watching, pub opens early and they have bacon and sausage barms for sale

Red Stripe

Road closed just before pub so can park up before Apparently does good food for supporters and we have to slow to round corner & climb

Hope I don't have to slow down too much. Might stop for a pint!

Crooky-IronKnee
