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!

Hendo reminded me earlier about race momentos, whilst he was fannying about with FE mugs. Anyway... what we could do with, is some sort of Mick and Phil logo, which we could use on any medal, mug etc (and I could also make use of it on their website). I was thinking some sort of stylised outline of the lads, arms aloft. Any graphics folks care to put their hands up for this one?

Fannying? FANNYING?!

Okay fair enough.

What we need is someone who is a whizz with pooters and photoshop and what have you - must be relatively straightforward to get a line drawing outline using that? I'd have thought.

Finally recieved a reply from Amy Whitehouse (not Winehouse):

I believe that Ian has sent you a price list for track hire but
unfortunately we are unable to offer any discount. (booooo hisss :( )

I hope that the event is successful.

Kind regards

Amy

I forwarded said price list to Fetch a while ago.

Dunno if this has already been touted around but near to me is a railway track that has been converted into a cycle path. As far as I know its about 9 miles long. If a cycle path of similar description could be found then the need for road closures and all that nonsense goes away.

Mind you if you were going to use the Garston - Aintree line you'd need someone to sweep all 9 mines of broken glass

Just a thought.

Just a thought

bloody hell form , this is something!!!

( Roger Wilkes - Kenilworth runners ) he organises the Draycote run, the 26 and 35 miles we've just done

200 over that 4.75 miles traffic free loop was pretty good

i'm sure we could fit 500 in there

make it say 3 + bit laps for HM,

we cam make that over there in 1.50 odd , that's not race pace

BUT it's OFF the public highway

Mick - Draycote did strike me as pretty much an ideal location for this event subject to your approval and not minding going back there.
