They sound good to me. Especially if they are techie. And especially if our glorious logo is on it as well!

Quite happy to go with the majority but I did think we had decided on cheapo hen party slogan t-shirts?
How about a vote?
While I have your attention, I should have some time next week so will 'stick' in a declaration (now I have your age on day). Let me know if there are likely to be any recent changes to pace, pending injury etc so I can adjust the timings accordingly.

You will be getting the same support car as last year  Am sure we will work something out for moving bikes around. I have an old bike rack so if needs be can bring that - it fits any car. You did say your bike adjusts didn't you Mark 'cos it may be me riding it for Shaun's first bit and I've only got little legs

Hopefully someone is going to offer to take your bike Mark..as much as I love you I feel I can't take everything and do everything!
The car will be the same as last year and loaded up the same as last year I imagine.

that was my concern..... i,m sure we will work something but obviously there is only so much the corsa can take..... so long as theres coffee.....oh and Matt's muffins...... its that lovely logistics problem again......my thinking is that after say Gt Yarmouth wont need it till the early 8 miler some 50 miles later in the race.......

To be honest I don't really want a bike rack on my car plus it will have the race warning sign on the back. Totally agree there is only so much my car will take!
If all goes to plan (which I suspect it won't!) we should be finished just after day break so might only need one bike support on the second day. We have the first two legs covered and some of the following legs require little bike support as they are on the coastal path thingy. My main concern is covering legs 3-7 when Mark, Matt and Steve will need to run so can't ride in that time period. Neil and Jon have offered to help so I am hoping they will be sufficently recovered to perhaps do 6 and 7. Anyway I am sure it will all come together.

| I'm planning on making myself available all weekend, so I'll most likely be moving my car (and bike if needed) around throughout. |

In the interests of honesty, Matt isn't the one who parked his car on the beach but in my own defence there was a whole row of others in the same place and it WAS low tide   . Can't remember which leg you are down for this year Matt but if you let me drive your car again, I promise to check in every direction before parking it
