I'm in - missed the Highland drive, no reason to miss a fairly local run.

Great stuff Ross
I'm thinking of increasing the run for a few more miles, I just don't think 30 miles is long enough... I'll get the map out and have a look later, after all, there's far too much nice scenery to look at around the area

You could go further down the Fosse way as it is a pretty long road & maybe find some nice b-roads.
Also I apologise in advance to anyone who might get stuck behind me on the twisty stuff, I dont drive the tubby very quickly through the bends

Looks like I'm not going to make this now. Just found a screw in one of my rear tyres so this is a no go now as that's my fuel + lunch money gone
Hopefully see some of you at japfest

No point really as the tyres only have around a months life left on them.vinp182 wrote:This sucks, Cant you get it repaired dude?Craig-rev3 wrote:Looks like I'm not going to make this now. Just found a screw in one of my rear tyres so this is a no go now as that's my fuel + lunch money gone

Re: Cotswolds Run - Sunday 28th April - tomorrow!!
Route update, how does a 70 mile run sound to everyone?
We will be going in the route as described in the first post, but taking a slight detour through Chipping Norton, Burford, Northleach, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-Wold, Moreton-in-Marsh, and then onto Willersley for a bite to eat...

Little bit far for me chris, but only because I'm coming from Gloucester so will be travelling along most of the route to get to the start point.chris wrote:Route update, how does a 70 mile run sound to everyone?

Maybe somewhere in between the two distances, 50 miles ish.
Of course, if everyone else is in favour of the longer run then I'm happy. :-)

Re: Cotswolds Run - Sunday 28th April - tomorrow!!
Fair enough, what I'll do is get a few routes up together and then we can have a chat about it at the services before we set off see what everyone thinks before we go...madmr2man wrote:Little bit far for me chris, but only because I'm coming from Gloucester so will be travelling along most of the route to get to the start point.chris wrote:Route update, how does a 70 mile run sound to everyone?
