If it's not raining too hard on Saturday I'll take my better camera with me on "race track" and stop at various places to get some shots.

I'm not racing with broken ribs, so I'm just going for a bimble and a laugh.

I'll post up them all (good and bad) on Flickr and post a link to the folder on here, but I will ask now and once they are uploaded.

If you want a shot or two or three to help yourself to the photos on [u][b]ONE CONDITION[/b][/u] the next time you pass a mountain rescue tin you put in a quid for EACH photo you take off the site.

Do I have a deal?

Or do I have to spend days putting those silly copyright things across low res pictures?

You're not going to have much time as the race is only 2 hours. Find me before the start and I'll give you a marshal's map which has all the [s]accident blackspots[/s] interesting bits marked on it.

How will I spot you?

I'll be on the blue silly bike if that helps?

Some of the event medics are Mountain Rescue IIRC. If anybody has the urge to part with some cash at the race they may even have a tin with them.

Bloody hell no presure on me then.

I've just ordered a Hero camera, if it arrives on Friday it will get used as well.

Does it count that I organised a fund raiser for our local branch? See Friday January 21st on here: http://www.boltonmrt.org.uk/go.php?page=news
I might need a couple of pics to go in our club magazine.

08:45 for a briefing followed by deployment to fox holes and fixed positions at 09:00 hours.
