I'm off work and the dates are free
, 3rd time lucky hopefully.
1st entry = Broke shoulder
2nd entry = Lockdown ballsed it all up even tho the dates were open
3rd entry noon on Thursday = An apocalypse won't stop me this time, apart from not getting an entry that is

Welp, when the apocalypse hits now, at least I'll know who to blame.

Are you lumping BB200 & 300 entries together in terms of numbers? I can’t decide to be sensible and opt for the 200 or have a go at the 300.
If you are going through hell, keep going.

Yes Llanbrynmair Luke. I was just giving Phil the postcode at home so he had an idea.Not Llanbrynmair this year?
Yep. There's 80 places and those proudly sporting a black badge get to decide whether they want 200 or 300 once they've secured a place.Are you lumping BB200 & 300 entries together in terms of numbers?

Re: BB200/300 - 2021
After much computer related issues, I'm in. Best go ride my bike a bit now then.
Re: BB200/300 - 2021
I was almost tempted to enter but given the advice of “if you’re a softie have a word with yourself and let someone else have a go” (I paraphrase slightly) I decided against it. Hopefully I can ease myself into it gently with a winter event or something first and have a go in 22.
Re: BB200/300 - 2021


True, I did it in 2017, lugging a loaded bike across a bog is a lot more physical than the riding.

Obviously far too easy a ride if it sells out that quickly
