MC - that's fine, I was in two minds on whether to vote because I'm not in a position to commit to Wales and in the past there have been issues with lots of people voting on a venue then nobody turning up. But Tenby will always get a good pirate turnout, champs or not so not really an issue.
I do fancy trying a Canadian/US race at some point, I imagine the vibe is a bit different to the European ones.
America should be an option for a pirate trip one year, abou 7-8 of us did Florida in 2007
I think other than IM WA 2020 that an American one is about the only thing to tempt me out of retirement, Florida was great and there are some great ones to pick, anything with a name of IM Chattanooga has to be good doesn't it? Always wanted to go to Kentucky, so its IM Louisville or even see how America used to be at IM Maryland
Can someone put me down for Austria please? I'm having the old iPad problem
You are top of the list already IB......keen aren't you!
Not 100% yet when I want to go in 2018 as Mrs 9 has mentioned a Lanza trip next year would be nice...will vote before the end though.
Austria was great 2 years ago, but so was Wales last year!!
Hmm, no idea how that happened as that's an old post, and at the time I allegedly posted this, I was in a meeting? I'm keen, but not that keen. Unless there's a McDonald's along the course route. Then I'd be dead keen
Wales, bike course would be hilly enough for me, run/walk course might be a bit too hilly for me! Plus time of year & probable weather not great for me, cold knees make for an unhappy Little Sister!!
Sweden, bike too flat, but probably wouldn't have an issue with the run course!
Cut offs in Mastricht & Barcelona might be a bit tight for me!
I'm tempted to go back to France, I have unfinished buisness (officially a DNF, but crossed line in under 17 hours but I want that sub 16 finish)! Got a bit of thinking to do!

Like the sound of Austria following a read of Roseys race report.
Also noticed a new one in Hamburg, during school holidays and we know that Germans like a beer or two. so atmosphere should be good.

We might go to America. Maybe. Anyone wanna come?
I'm glad to see so much interest.
Hard to rate which is the best, had a great time at Florida, Coeur d'Alene and Arizona.
Still thinking on this and will have to consult Mrs BP on her preference, when are we closing the vote?
not until end of Feb... you've got plenty of time!

Takes it to a whole new level doesn't it
Hmm, no idea how that happened as that's an old post, and at the time I allegedly posted this, I was in a meeting? I'm keen, but not that keen. Unless there's a McDonald's along the course route. Then I'd be dead keen
I too have unfinished business with Austria...............
Nobody to blame but myself and it's haunted me the last 18 months!
So providing they don't bring the date forward that would be my preference
the first bike cutoff in Austria is tight..does that ever cause a problem
I managed it ...
I did enjoy Austria!
Wales, bike course would be hilly enough for me, run/walk course might be a bit too hilly for me! Plus time of year & probable weather not great for me, cold knees make for an unhappy Little Sister!!
Sweden, bike too flat, but probably wouldn't have an issue with the run course!

Need to see if IMF returns after next year's post Promenade murders hiatus I guess but certainly enjoy Nice week.
