Claire and I are organisating Preston.  Thoughts at the moment are for a short (say 3 lap) TT and a race of the usual 45 mins to an hour length.
 
Jon and Anne Coulson are leading Lancaster.  They've suggested half an hour each way round. 
Challenge Hurricane - MicWic Delta (Front half) - Burrows Ratracer

I've started to contemplate camping over the weekend, anyone else camping?

Most people usually camp here... red bank farm ...
I've called them and they do have space for this weekend and they are happy with me doing a pikey impression and kipping in the back of the van... Which is nice because some camp sites are a bit snobby about that sort of thing... Big smile
 
I'm planning to stay there Saturday and Sunday nights...

Hi All
Had a good day at Lancaster today. The weather seemed to be behaving. Thanks to all who gave me a little time to talk technical. Hope my lad wasn't pestering too many of you. He is looking forward to having a go next year as a junior. He was very happy to cheer on the younger racers, ring last lap bell and hold the flag.
 
Thanks again.
Andy Joe and Nell

Thanks to all the organisers at Lancaster and Preston - we had a great weekend as usual!


Hope nobody from the BHPC was involved with the crash at Garstang they were reporting on the radio on the way back Unhappy.

Many thanks from me too... That was a great weekend - The last race was really good fun with 5 of us all working well together... Congratulations to Barney (git...) for spotting that we were on the last lap and catching me and Leo snoozing!
 
Three very close finishes with Leo this weekend... Sports Class could be interesting afterall... Big smile

I have been appointed as official scribe for the Preston/Lancaster weekend. Since my recollections of the weekend do not extend far beyond staring at the back end of Mr Burrows' vehicle, which would make a very dull contribution to his esteemed organ, I would be grateful for pictures and/or stories from any of the races.

500 extra Championship Points are available to anyone with a photo of the Preston Hedgehog.

Please feel free to post photo-links here but send scribblings to me by PM, otherwise I can't claim it as my own when it appears in the mag.

Many thanks - Andrew
