Yep I think so. I did last year. Just don't do what I did and hit the cider too hard and die the next day. ๐Ÿ˜€

Plenty of us arrived on the Friday last year.

Yep. No problem with camping on the Friday and indeed on the Sunday night. As long as you've bought a ticket, of course. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ton; make sure you pop by us for a beer when you're down.

Oh, and getting hammered the night before the races is perfect preparation actually. ๐Ÿ˜€

Fact: carlphillips off here was four or five pints into his evening when he won the biffers'/normal speed people's night (1 lap) race last year. He says he barfed at the end. [edit] and he only has one gear. Grrr!

Yeah but that's what it's all about! Just 'normal' people having a laugh, not fully trained up XC whippets on special diet plans and an early night. ๐Ÿ˜€

I seem to recall that stealing a 50 yard gap on everyone else by narrowly avoiding the comedy pileup right at the start was also instrumental in Carl's (and indeed my) first and most likely last ever podium. 8)

I love a good clean comedy race pileup.

We should have a river crossing next time, preferably right near the start: that would make it way more silly.

Oh, if you're watching Nick, is the 'rad track' finished yet?

Apparently the gravity track is finished, and looking good. ๐Ÿ˜€

I'm not sure WCA's wife thinks this is such a good thing though. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

I'm not sure at the moment, it's about 60/40 towards me not being there.
If I do make it, i'll be on the other side of the bar, i'm just not in a position where I can get fully behind arranging the beer tent, so have stepped down as director of beer.

Please make it Luke it won't be the same without you in the beer tent. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Director of Beer is one most important role in World.

If I do make it, i'll probably only be in the beer tent as a customer.
There will be a new director of beer this year, and i'm sure that it will be as good as ever ๐Ÿ™‚

Camping fine on the Friday might (inc. in price) but please don't turn up before 3pm as we have to wait for others to go and tidy up a bit. If you want to stay over on the Sunday night, not a problem but let us know on 01425 672347 and there will be the normal pp charge for this (not included in BBB ticket price), cheers
ps - we always need a hand tidying up the main field on the Monday morning
