Well after melting the server, it took only 24 minutes to sell out. Given that most people were a little panicky and concentrating on securing an entry, should you wish to go back and order yourself a T shirt, then feel free at some point.

Out of interest, what was the deal with the "page not found" error?
Could you not get it uploaded?
Edit - Ahh, saw it in the other thread. lol

Not sure if I’m in. Cath was entering for me as I’m away. She got to the PayPal page but I don’t think she got the confirmation email.
Might have to go on the reserve list

Bob... if Cath is in but you're not then I'm happy to give my ticket (at 500% inflation obviously*) and go on the reserve list... Reducing the carbon footprint and all that stuff
* just kidding about the inlfation and I'm sure a reserve place will come up soon enough...

he'll have got a ticket I suppose. I thought about it afterwards that Cath would have put 2 tickets in the basket and not one at a time...
Dyffers is sorting me some super cheap hubs anyway and the m1700 rims can be rebuilt into them. New bike day

Neither of us have tickets - I don't think you can select more than one at once.
No problem, I'll sit on the reserves bench

Oh dear... can I split my ticket between the two of you Bob
Sorry you didn't get in but AFAIK you can select 2 tickets in one go... 2 will be round the corner just waiting to be nabbed

If there hadn't been server problems it would likely have sold out in 2.4 minutes!
