Thank you Susan, if you could be number steward that would be great. I have put Finn down for a job at the finish as I spoke to him a few weeks ago at the Club 10. Is he still available to help?

Looks like I'll be home with a cuppa by the time you get going stiggers!

I dunno Matt, I've seen your recent form.

I'm more worried about being beaten by the 60 year old behind me!

mattss

Pedals and saddle attached last night, tonight it's bolting on front and rear mech and brakes. She's looking fast!

SusanW

Finn can help as per original post, and I'll be there too (with cake!)

Susan, Phil, & Tom please whisper me your email addresses (so I can let you have a copy of the start sheet) and phone contact details, thank you.

* More help required *

We still need a minimum of 3 more helpers and more cake donations would be great as we have 120 riders to feed. All catering profit will be going to CCA.

We are hoping (and only if he feels able) that Richard will be there but his main assigned job will be talking to people!
