Hoped to be ready for this one but isn't going to happen, enjoy. Fingers crossed it running before the next (last?) one!

Jim mentioned it on FB,
Not being on Faceache or the DC I wasn't aware of it.
Epsom is a bridge too far on timing tbh but the Grasshopper is doable.
Indeed we could get there before the DC bunch arrive.

I need to know ASAP who is serious about it though as it affects what I had planned!

You're not the only one... :rolleyes:

Btw, the DC route includes a certain tunnel which we all know and love. ;)
I have no idea where they got Hartwell from. :confused1:
The village near Ashdown Forest is Hartfield.
As anyone who knows about A A Milne will be aware.

My formative years were all spent in East Sussex.
My best friend lived near Ashdown Forest.
We played Pooh Sticks at the bridge many a time.

That makes things interesting, a run followed by an awesome breakfast followed by another run. I'd be happy to go along with this but I'm not a member of the dc

Lol glad I'm not the only one Tony, should all be done and dusted on Saturday.

As for plans after the run I'm all ears but quite happy to make a decision after breakfast depending on how I'm feeling. I may actually have to clean the car for the first time in months if this is the case.

Neither am I. :)
Some of us from the OC shared a pitch with them at the Bromley Pageant in 2015.

I have spoken to Alan (the DC rep) and he is fine with us tagging along.
The plan is to meet them at The Grasshopper.
It's about 45-50 minutes from the KR finish so we should arrive before they do.

:laughing - It will be covered in dead flies/bugs by breakfast, so you'll need to find a jet wash.

PMs sent. See you on Sunday folks.

Hopefully this time the start won't have to be delayed because someone's alarm clock hasn't gone off or they have problems reading a map/road signs...
;) :rolleyes:

Still doesn't excuse the sorry state its in at the minute :facepalm:

Brakes are now back on as is a new drop link, just missing a copper washer to connect the passenger broke line. Should be bled and done sometime tomorrow :th:

PM received, should be absolutely fine but I'll let you know if there are any complications.
