Wondering when does camping open on the Saturday?
Is it possible to buy camping on the day (either with BHPC or direct with the track?)
Current fleet: Milan SL MK2 #027, Fujin SL II, Beany!

Dear Grand High Mistress of the Time Lords

Can I please please plead for change of circumstances, due to stoker illness I will no longer be riding a tandem but will be showing up with the old faithful Rapto Unfaired.  Is it possible to change the system at this late a stage?

In return for my late awkwardness I am more than happy to help with set up, testing and packing away of sprint gear on Monday as I will be present but not racing.

Sorry

Yep, can do.  Hope Chris makes a swift recovery.

Thank you to Kim, Natalya, Heather, Twed and the occasional roar from Barney. 

Interesting return to racing on my cobbled together velomobile, many comments about rattles come from it, they were designed in so that everybody could hear me approach.

Maybe putting springs back into the front suspension will help, I also found numerous off cuts of carbon fibre on the floor when packing up and the access hatch needs a bit of foam backing.

As for me, totally knackered half way through second race, a year away from cycling has taken its toll, it's going to be a long hard slog to get fit and sort the machine out for the worlds next year.
