I just thought there was one for the guided busway? @PowerJen @HellsBells @RichHL I think the thread's been culled. The event is still in the race database, with an Event Website that's a Fetch thread that doesn't exist. fetcheveryone.com/races/busway-purgatory-jubilee-mile-time-trial-71907

Flatlander 15 Dec 11:51am, 15 Dec 2024 3,374 posts	0 Flatlander @RichHL , @HellsBells wouldn't be able to get to St. Ives because the Busway bridlepath is badly flooded between Swavesey and St. Ives, and is impassable without underwater breathing apparatus.

EarlyRiser 15 Dec 3:56pm, 15 Dec 2024 1,538 posts	0 EarlyRiser The guided busway mile? Or this thread?! Or the old parkrun? If the first best wait for @Flatlander to resurface with his underwater breathing apparatus. Hi @HellsBells @RichHL and all. Unfortunately I’m too far from this fun(hell)scape to join in these days.
Flatlander 15 Dec 5:04pm, 15 Dec 2024 3,376 posts	0 Flatlander @EarlyRiser The previous Guided Busway Mile was run on the bridleway towards the Cambridge end of the Busway and that stretch is safe (usually) from flooding. You'll have to organise an event where you now live so we can come and have a funscape with you.
