I've just booked my tickets for the downhill world cup in fort william (6/7th June)
I'm going on my own so if there are others in the same boat that fancy a beer whilst there, let me know

Hello,
Yes I'm going.....and this year I will be going solo. 🙁
Cheers.
Maybe me too. Won't know for sure until nearer the time though.
They are expecting it to be very busy this year and accomodation is apparently getting booked up pretty quick.

It is busy every year, and some accommodation is booked up a year in advance.
They are expecting it to be significantly busier this year compared to last year, based on the tickets they've sold so far, and there is much less local accomodation available compared to the same time last year.
Had a chat with my brother about this today, went a bit like this... "even if we have to sleep in the car we're going"
So... where can i get tickets?
We are going, Mrs Rickmeister is working in the VIP tent, (quick rub down with a towel Mr Peat?). I'm on Sprint and DH marshalling... Camping booked....
Just had confirmation of my accommodation.
Wozza; tickets and info here; http://www.fortwilliamworldchamps.co.uk/tickets.html

have they been knocking down the hotels and b&b's
Most of it gets booked up a year in advance, usually by the riders, teams and media etc.
We book ours each year, its worth the 10 hour trip IMO 🙂
I'm there. 2 nights in the travel inn for a bit of luxury 😆
Pass gained for Sunday & ticket bought 🙂
I'm walking from my flat in Glasgow to Fort William. Bad idea? It most certainly is!
Im there also. Sat and SUnday.
Anyone fance a STW beer in the town Sat night ?
I personally cannie wait! Great weekend !
Whisky and smokeables in Glen Nevis for us! Got into the hostel by the skin of our teeth, there for four nights after cycling in from bridge of orchy, gonna be good!
Midgies are going to be savage though, apparently been some quite spectacular rain then sunshine on the west coast, just how they like it!
That's just for fat boys rolling downhill.
I'm going to the real championship - SSUK09 🙂
I'm going and I have a bike test booked. Result!
Also looking forward to the bike test, got a SC Blur Carbon booked 🙂
despite the spectacular rain n sunshine there were virtually no midgies at the SDA last weekend. 😮
was quite windy tho. 😉
Is anyone driving up from the South West? I need a lift back on the Sunday after the mens DH - anyone got a spare seat in their car??!
