There will be at some point Colin ... just not this weekend.
TBH, I wasn't expecting one - just wondering after the comment above

I can however confirm that we're now full up, a little quicker than I expected.

Bugger.
Can you put me on the reserve list, if such a thing exists?

Remember that what's miserable for you might be tropical to me.
What are the best previous BB200 threads in which to find out logistical stuff etc? I don't want to go over old ground unnecessarily.

Crikey. Sold out on the first day- get distracted at work and miss it! Stu, please could you put me on the reserves list?
Thanks!

Fairly normal, if you're usually a medium buy a medium.

Different route each year now so not much to gain there.

I wouldn't worry. As Stu previously mentioned, if your on the reserve list you'll probably get in.

Got in whilst sat at the start of Mille Pennines. This is consolation for having packed a couple of hours in to the second day. Currently in a grump. The thought of trudging through bar high bracken is brightening my mood.

Just an early warning BTW. I'm a Scotsman and so demand value for money. I'll be making sure I get my whole 36hrs worth!

Just back from Mille Pennines audax, 10 minutes before the start of which I got a BB200 entry in. Thanks to Mekon for the reminder when I was concentrating on other things ( mainly eating my Jaffa cake-based performance energy food and which climb my knees were most likely to explode on).
Is the route changing this year Stu?

Course, if you start and finish in the same place, the middle bit must be flat, right?
