I hope we get conditions like last year. That was magic.
Yeah, especially the first lap!
I'd forgotten it was tomorrow - we need to try and get a solo entry in (not for myself I hasten to add).
What's up with their website -
www.strathpuffer.co.uk
seems like it's expired or do they now use a different one?
Actually you're supposed to wait until 30 seconds past 10:00 so I can get my entry in 🙂
Al- what's the monkey doing it as?
I'll be back this year. I'm excited.
Al- what's the monkey doing it as?
soloing this time what about you luke
I am not entering it again but am willing to be support for folk if needed.
How much are the entries as a team of 2?
Site not working for me as well
website is playing funny.
entries are on SiEntries.

No solo for me. I'm going to try and summon an uber-team (which means Huw, that Costa Rican mince-meister and Zoe).
All sitting poised waiting for 10:00:01 are we?
im in - solo
thought my satelite connection from africa would **** me over but it was all good
now to see if running miles translate to endurance on a bike - ive done zero miles since august
is solos full?, cant seem to get in, mind dont really understand the SiEntries form... 😳
registered but says team type full?, guess im not going 😥
i got a solo place - there were still spaces a few minutes ago - worth trying again coastkid?
Yes, I'm in =) solo again. 4th year for me.
Solos now showing 46 entries - how many are they allowing this year?
Now to persuade someone to look after the kids 14-17th Jan...
Cheers, al.
im on the waiting list 😮
sorry everyone but hope theres a flu epidemic after xmas 
Got a team in the quad, and a solo on the waiting list, now just to keep our fingers crossed that they also get in. Hope we get the same weather as last year too, it was awesome!!
In with a Quad.
Wanted to try it as a pair this year but the wife wasn't keen.
Caravan or camper this year though!
Ends up an expensive one with a couple of hoodies and cycling tops! Man alive!
That said, if it all goes to keeping the event going in the future and allows a decent profit for everyone's hard work then it can't be grudged.
W are in the same situation as you barney. we are looking to get a campervan for the family to go abroad next summer but we also have a very old caravan sitting behind the house which is good enough for these sorts of events as it doesn't matter if it gets wrecked or muddy, ha
Thanks goodness the solos are full.
Anyone fancy a team mate for a Pair? It won't be a poduim place though...
Christ. I may have just entered as a pair. What. The. Chuff.
I didn't do it this year- am I right to be scared again?
Wonder how we'll fair against the might that is JMC...
After 40 mins there's a total of 240 entrants: 48+(2×34)+(4×31)
al.
as Spokescycles has said, I'm in the pairs this time 'round.
Which was nice, cos my team-mate sorted out the entry whilst I relaxed with a coffee 😉
How fast are you feeling? Will I have to get serious with the training and shun Christmas?
You don't need to cancel Christmas, just calorie control your roast dinner
...and eat it while on the turbo trainer
...outside
...in the rain
😉 😀
yet again i'm johnny no mates soloing. super.... i think.
is the ben wyvis doing its usual?

*shits self*
😯
*shits self*
wait until you get off the turbo for that.
All I'll say is I'm glad I didn't get into the trend for white bike bits...
Seriously, looking forward to this in a morbid way. I'm on ebay looking for caravans...
Thats me in again for this year, in the pairs. So looking forward to this.
in the bit about the turbo trainer you forgot the bit about getting someone to throw a constant stream of mud at you and then someone else to randomly push you off. oh yes, and be sitting on your turbo trainer since christmas eve. in the dark.
it's currently peeing down here. conditions my so describes as 'ideal'. i did sugg. est the trainer but she said if i did that i'd be being a soft ****er. she's so supportive....
I'm in. Solo again. Bring it on. Cool puffer cycle tops I thought.
Yeah, I bought one of the hoodies, bargain at £20
good job you can edit your entrys on SIentrys .....
i thought id like a hoodie - but didnt dare hold up the entry process by filling in useless info like "do you want a hoodie" ... 😉

This any good? I was going to be putting it on eBay next year before the season.
Bit scruffy, but relatively low mileage for that sort of vehicle.
Used it for the last few Puffers.

It's brakes will be worn out then 😀 😉
It was a pig on the View Rock descent - kept having to clear single speeders out of the wheel arches.
Does anyone know ballpark rental prices for a campervan to take 4 sloths?
Has anyone rented one before and can recommend a company?
Would be coming from glasgow btw if that helps.
dh - rented twice for the puffer once from http://www.bigtreecampervans.com/ - which are really two berth or
http://www.motorhomes.free-online.co.uk/ a few hundred for a weekend
Tempting tempting tempting.
*muses*
PITA to get to for non motorised folk?
adh - possible = train to dingwall / muir of ord and ride from there.
*muses more*
Got both a spot in the solo's and a quad team entered now. Shall see you all there 🙂
