I'm in 🙂 can't wait!!
shall have to see if I can get team aldi to reform and whether I can get them to put in a full days work instead of lurking near the finish line 🙄
Woohoooooooooo. I'm spending my birthday traipsing across the Field of Despair like a refugee who's been forced, at gunpoint, to push a bike repeatedly up a hill. Hope it snows again 😀
Done…Now what tyres shall I use? Also will I need lights?

I'll see how I'm feeling about bike racing on Monday!
Great race people BTW (A MUST DO)!
I'm in.
Fingers crossed the medics let me race it....
In and bringing a spade this year. Woop woop, lets dig some BMWs out of snow again!
In finally after navigating the website who kept telling me they had my details, then giving me, then telling me the ones they gave me were wrong, then asking me to re-join. they eventually took my money though - i bet the race is easier
in my case I mean race in the loosest possible terms
We're getting live stats as the entries come in and it would appear that some of you are suffering from gender confusion.
Before confirming your entry take a peek down the front of your undies.
A simple guide is as follows... Last chicken drummer at the BBQ = Male.
I'm in but entering on a "smart" phone was stressfull and longer than the race itself.
It's as though British cycling are trying to keep people off their bikes by giving then hundreds of pages to go through.
Please use someone else next year please

Want to do it again, hoping to have someone fuel share with me this time though....
Where are you coming from mrlugz?
I've not got my dates through yet Harry, so i don't know if I'll be pre-op or post-op by February. Its all very confusing
You are down as “sausage included”.

Newcastle. 🙂
How many riders are needed before you close
Entry is limited to 300. It will sell out. It always does.
[s]Im going to enter[/s]I've entered anyway, I have heard from a couple of mates that they want to do it 🙂
If any Newcastle ish peeps want to share a ride, I can carry 6 bods and 6 bikes in the van no bother.
Entry is limited to 300
+/- 50

No no, no no no no, no no no no, no no.
There's no limits.
Rumour has it they've reformed and been booked to play on top of MTFU hill

The limit is defined by the look on the BC race official’s face when 300 bodies line up at the start of the first climb.
Red – Not enough entries
Pink – The right amount
White – Too many
We scored a “white” last year which turned to a “pink” once everybody was moving.

You got it wrong,

'Fat blokes at the back of the starting grid.'
I thought it was the queue for the pie stall, honest. 😥
Have we got any 'slebs' this year?
I think we should invite Lisa Riley - We could do a 'spot the difference' compo.
Lisa Riley, naked and on all-fours, parking for two fat bikes.
Please, please, please edit that last post. 😯
Have we got any 'slebs' this year?
I'm hopeful the motorbike bloke will be back. We got loads of women offering to marshal last year after that one went public.
I'm trying to register with BC but I must have done it once before, but not activated my account and now I can't find the activation email, and idea if I can get it resent somehow?
EDIT: never mind, fixed it 🙂
hmmm...you'd have to ask them that. I assume so.
