I'm going to test fire the new HTN PA system in a bit inside a very small store room. I shall ask Mr Derekstarship to record the event for the inquest should there be a structural collapse.
cx or FS MTB?
Downhill bike. Definitely!
am I right in thinking the winner is to person who completes the most laps in 2 hours?
or have I missed something (or everything)?
The winner is the person who completes the most laps in 2 hour + the lap that they are already on. If more than one person is on the same lap after 2 hours the first to complete the lap wins.
Ride whatever bike you are best on. CX are quick but I think that is more down to the rider than the bike. If I was doing it I would use my 5" travel FS as there is less chance of me falling off it.
The PA works, my hearing on the other hand, does not.
Will you be using the PA for your Karaoke renditions of Celine Dion classics Harry?
I'm sure that after a few cold, wet laps, your heart-wrenching rendition of 'My Heart Will Go On" could reduce most people to tears
Derek did have a bit of a sing-a-long.

We had it up to about 5% and the room started to shake.
LETS RAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCK!!!!!!! HELLO PRESTWICH!!!!! HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PRESTWICH!!!!!
Wuntwoo-Wuntwoo.
Shabba.
Assuming it goes well above 11.
It was like firing up the sound system of Radcliffe Civic Hall in your down stairs loo.
I nearly caved my head in.
Bump for the lunchtime crowd.
The additional 50 places have gone.

...and after we've dined in Hell there will be a trip to The Church Inn for a some cold beers and tall tales.
is there course map?
Yes.
And no, you can't have it.
I have proposed that the underage race only be held in the Somme. They get to do laps in it. Teach them for when they get older.
I've booked my ferry for this one now, cannot wait for it.
Did bits of the old course on Sunday.
Let's just say that dust shouldn't be too much of a problem.
I'm thinking about bringing a picnic this year.
If you're polite when you come past I might offer you a dinky pie.
Ms Spanner will be marshalling (glasses, long hair, sadistic grin) and should have a flask of hot Vimto and some Jelly Babies available if you ask nicely.
Hey are you going to make everyone sign on with their forum names? We wanted to do this for TodCross but the British Cycling forms proved a bit limiting. Or make all forum frequenters wear their names on sashes, so I can grumble at them as they pass me.
nice idea but it could end up like wacky races!
Did elfin actually enter in the end?
Has anyone started a "What tyres for Hit the North 3" thread yet?
On a recent dry trip over there

At the bottom of Ton's descent
any reserve list? (cheeky I know)
No. Sorry.
Did elfin actually enter in the end?
Nope. The attitude of certain individuals has put me off tbh.
That and the venue.
CX bike looks most appropriate from that shot, any other shots that would persuade me otherwise?
