Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I've been studying the long route and noticed that the Forbury Road bridge is missing. I think this is easily resolved with a short loop at the start that will also pass by the prison and abbey, which might be of interest to some.

Ok, so what time do we think the first people will be at the pub? I am now available for lunch, but have DS2 in tow so we will do a short joggette over a nearby bridge to qualify and then join you at the pub. Cannot miss this level of Fetchfest :-)

Just gone midday I'd guess, if we're setting off at 11 for a slowish 6? I'm about 11.30mm pace at the moment.

I think ChrisHB is pubbing only so should be there if you're earlier than us :-)
