I'd expect nothing less from you than continuing with some form of kick ass adventure and yes, for your 'getting leave issue' it sucks to be you so I hope the rest of your job scenario is quite rewarding and from what I know of it I'm sure it is.

Yeah it's a pity, really enjoy catching up with the other adventurers and apart from the very first DB haven't missed one since, oh well on to the planning, will probably extend our ride out a few days, so many good trails to explore!

Be good to catch up with you again crim. Lets hope it gets better - don't go too hard on the yoga.

Bit of a change eh? I'm waiting on cost to register.... and whenever registration opens.

Ryan, I completely understand your decision to pass the baton on and I would like to thank you profusely (no Jaffa sarcasm intended) for your efforts in sustaining the event for so long. The DB is a great event and I have wonderful memories of it.

Thanks!
Iain.

hi Don't Know, You have 1 to 2 Jan as date in the quoted messages Title. The Web site is showing 1 to 2 March as the dates. I assume 1 to 2 March are the correct dates?
