Easter Bunny 10km

ImRio

Well the race organisation is better than the admin side!!

go for it then while you still can!!!


DB no excuse now you will have to enter or you might not get in!!!

I refer the gentleman to the RHL previous answer...

put your name on the list and see what happens.

I'm being sucked into the duathlon and I haven't even got a bike!

ImRio

So have you then DB? have you?

bit like quick sand, once your in it its a devil of a job to get out!!!!!

[Deleted User]

errr, no Miss.

But, if I'm not mistaken it's the tri that is sold out and not the duathlon.

Best I find a bike with a seat like my faithful NB832s....better cushioning than any thing you'll get at DFS..

I've called out to Oatcake for help on the Brizzle

ImRio

Well why not! The bike situation is a minor glitch that can be rectified as soon as you have entered!!

Nice padded bike seats you can get from halfords!

[Deleted User]

I think it's the Triathlon that is closed ??

This is what you need DB9 :-))

If I did the duathlon on this I'd want more than my coccyx rubbed!

Boffin

Fantastic RD, I'd come just to watch DB9 on that! )

ImRio

Do tell!!!

ImRio

Might be hard getting up the hills on that but I would give it a go for a laugh!

[Deleted User]

This is awful!

F1 crash involving Button...

Rio - I've not looked at Boreham Wood. But am now thinking that Cardiff will be the hm goal. Pretty sure it's a chipped race so I guess it doesn't matter where I start. It would be preferrable to start closer to the front though.

Perhaps I'll let you organise the diary for next year now!!

ImRio

It is definitely a chipped race so now you are sorted and you should be able to start pretty close to the front!

[Deleted User]

Gets out handkerchief to pass to Oatcake!!

ImRio

Or should that be a white flag of surrender?

[Deleted User]

If only Bristol was the same date it was last year. There's no doubt that Bristol is faster than Cardiff.

But you should be in Sales Rio.

ImRio

Well looking for a career change!!

Not something I had ever considered I would be good at! lol


If Bristol is faster than Cardiff just think how good it would be to do 1.30 there then DB!!!

[Deleted User]

(((Rio))) You see the positive in everything! Last year Cardiff was a long way to go for a banana!

But you're right. Again..

ImRio

A banana, a stadium finish, a medal (in a posh box - none of this hang it round your neck stuff!) and a pb!!

got it all then!

[Deleted User]

You're unbelievable..

ImRio

too positive for my own good sometimes. can get a bit irritating for people as I can almost always find something good out of anything!
Taken me a long time to learn but its easy now!

[Deleted User]

So unbelievable..

I'd ignore the one's with the half empty wine glass...

Mine is always half full...

How'd you find the place where you're staying, shame you're not going to the hotel I suggested as they do fantastic food. As you say it only one night.

ImRio

Just went onto Google and picked one that was near the A303!!
Very technical!


Cant be any worse than some of the hovels I have stayed in. Dont want to over eat before a pb anyway!!!

[Deleted User]

Regardless I'm glad you're not driving down otd. Not sure what time I'll be getting to the start point..bringing someone that has to eotd so may be there for 9.30 or so.

Bike shop was expensive. But went there thinking I'd go for a dcent bike. Get more details and send on to you. Thinking I will go for a road bike and not a mountain bike.

ImRio

Its got to be a road bike! A mountain bike will have you spending more time going up and down than forward!!

I expect I will get there about 10ish too.
We can arrange a meet up!


Off now running in my costume tonight and off to London tomorrow going to a meeting then to wander around the embankment and give myself some positive talkings to!!

Boffin

Nothing wrong in travelling otd; least ways I hope not! Will mean an early start, but nothing new there:)

[Deleted User]

Good on you, have a great day in the smoke!

Boff - I did Cardiff otd for the passed two years but looking not to have that far to drive! I get nervous enough pre race

Boffin

Agreed DB9; stressing about missing the start is not ideal! Then finding somewhere to park close enough that isn't closed off because of the run....

Hopefully we won't have those troubles for the Bunny, an overnight stay would mean putting the canines in kennels - they are going in three times this summer as it is!

So drive down otd for us, if we are early enough then traffic won't be too bad?

[Deleted User]

Boff

No trouble with the parking at the Bunny....practically park on the start line.

I'm off for a trot

laters!
