Seeing as I came last at the last one, I feel the need to better that!

What comes after last?

DNF innit?
Yer actual mechanical/medical/religious conversion halfway through a lap type DNF, that's honorable.

As opposed to say, LURKING!

I think you know the answer, build it and they will come ๐Ÿ™‚ Unfortunately if you do, I lost a moto gp related bet a couple of years ago meaning that in the next HTN I would have to do it in a Wonder Woman outfit..

Do bears relieve themselves in tree rich environments?
Does the pope have a big balcony?

I'll see if I'm slower than Binners.

...oh bugger...what have I said?...Me and Terrahawk get drunk and start talking, then make a foolish post on here.

I suppose that we had better look into it then.

Different venue.
Different time of year.
Planned to coincide with the local beer festival.

Does it sound like a plan?

kind of, but it's always been glorious sunshine and lovely dry, dusty trails on that particular day somehow...

๐Ÿ˜€ I read this when I got in from work in the early hours and I did wonder whether drink may have been partly responsible for your post!

Still, it's done now. Looks like you're going to have to do it.

Can we expect some route scouting missions on forthcoming MNPR's?

The north is probably somewhere down south.

But yes.

It was named after a song by The Fall. Nothing to do with geography,

The (hazy) plan is to try and coincide it with Prestwich Beer Festival, which was this weekend.

Last time, he said he'd only entered because he wanted to meet the last person in the world who thought he was innocent.

But Hora didn't race. ๐Ÿ˜

I did buy him a pint afterwards - slightly shifty looking, bit odd, didn't believe a word he said.
Didn't get to meet Lance though.

Before you lot start rolling your eyes at me for my "where's the North" comment, well it's a bloody big place...
Just wanted an idea where, if it was in the Lakes there'd be no chance of me coming..

The negative is that the organisers are a set of sadistic bastards. ๐Ÿ˜€

You'll have to work hard for your beer.
