He's a scamp that Sam is - the only known bikepacker who is doing "At Home A Month" :lol: . All the other days he's under a hedge somewhere. Pro!

What with the vaccine here and most of us old enough to have hopefully been given it by the 1st weekend in May for The WRT.

This could be the last time we ever do a virtual event like this....

It's going to be emotional :wink:

Over half way mate 56 (plus Stuart)

We need an even number to pair everyone up.

Please note if it's an odd number the last person out of the hat will have Stuart pick their grid refs*....
And he's not going to be in a good mood when he see's his GR's.........


*I've not asked Stuart as yet, Are you OK to do this sir?

Don't let them hear you say that at home :smile: : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barm_cake "North West England".

Ah, I sort of wish I hadn't read further: "In Wigan, a whole savoury pie is served in a barm cake, known locally as a "Wigan Kebab". :o
