Just picked up my new runners for the Edinburgh Marathon, Asics Gel Nimbus 13's in Black and Yellow, might be another potential option for footwear at pirate feed station... must order a t-shirt from shop and rip arms off - i'm planning to camp, need to get new tent though, suspect that all camp gear is MIA (two scouts in the house and things never make it back!)
getting excited about camping... has anyone camped there before? knows setup or what facilities are like? don't really want to have to bring more stuff than to sleep and make a cuppa - hoping food can be "procured" locally or stolen if necessary
Have got a battery operated glitter ball and speakers for an MP3, quick trip to maplin for some battery LEDs and i'll be in business (errr.. not for the feedstation per se, i'm sure you appreciate)
Wasn't someone meant to be bringing stripper pole, hot tub and light up dance floor in the main thread? or has that idea been abandoned in favour of far more "sensible" hotel staying - personally if I was racing i think the hotel staying and avoiding anyone not racing until post sunday night would probably a good idea
In all seriousness here, can someone look into local pizza delivery places. Delivery to feed station about 10 minutes before I pass through.
I'm thinking this a lower health risk than me stuffing some food in to my special needs bag the day before, so that my egg sandwiches fester nicely on the sun.

heehee - I've just read this whole thread thinking - for some unknown reason - that "gastank" would be pronounced in the German way (guh-shtunk) rather than as the far more logical "gas tank". No idea why.

what happened to Operation Pirate Village
Gastank - or perhaps i should say Guh-Shtunk - I see this was all quickly forgotten at the promise of a Pirate Buff eh??? That Schmunkee is a wiley one!!!
I wonder if there is a market for pizza or kebab flavoured gels? Or I suppose you could just liquidise them to put in a bottle and drink up with a straw.

what topping would that be Cat? And do you want garlic bread with it?
This is getting more surreal by the day. Typical pirate outing!
Your local Domino's is:
Nottingham - West Bridgford, 21 Radcliffe Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham Tel: 01159 825577
depends on where feedstation is as to whether or not logistically possible?
Alternative....
On saturday order pizza
I'm actually thinking of seriousy trying this when my turn comes....
FFS, will you stop giving Barlos any ideas as to bike nutrition, please
Gastank, I think its pure genius, you should patent it!!
I'm in Nottingham tomorrow, I'll pick up a menu!
... you seem pleased that i'm back
Would you like a "pizza" sausage to go with that....?
just a thought.... buy a load of storage bottles, make a load of pizza sauasages and then dish them out at the feedstation?
I wonder if there's a market for this?
Gastank's Filling station, featuring the patented "pizza tank" to go...
.... only if it doesn't take as long as my buff did to arrive
i'll get my coat (again!)

But seriously, who' s making pizza tanks?
I might try making one at the weekend but with supermarket pizza, the key will be an Italian type base which will roll
...
as you were.

Now back on track
Who's camping? and what happended to the village?
Gastank
RafikiD
Also in other news, thinking continues on how to improve pizza tank concept...
*deletes email, puts Gastank and RafikiD on ignore*
Gastank - why go to all the bother with the pizza thing - I reckon a burrito would fit perfectly into a 750 bottle????
(p.s. don't forget we need to bring thornton's to the race too)
