Hi
Listed below the scores for the tour up to 19/06.
I have just found an error in the spreadsheet which has been corrected. Please check your score, if you find an error just please email me so I can check it. [email protected]





One last thing it was great to meet some of you last Saturday at the RTE. The thing I enjoyed was to hear the fun you are having doing this years tour. It was chosen because it's difficult and not easy. I hope my answers to your questions helped.

Well done Gordon

Well done Gordon,

The RTE at Fremington Quay provided a great excuse to pick up the West Country bonus locations for the BBT so I bagged the first three on the ride down on Friday. At least the rain had eased of sufficiently by the time I got to Alton Barnes to be able to actually see the white horse.....

Following the sunny, convivial and enjoyable RTE on Saturday (good call, Wully - nice one!) it was off for a run around Dartmoor.

The forecast rain on Sunday never really happened so a lovely run around the Cornish peninsula. Unfortunately SatNav issues (and a bit of brain fade on my part, too) meant that I missed Wheal Prosper tin mine. Oh, well..... And the only directions I could find at Gwennap Pit were to Gwennap parish church so there's a picture of that rather than the prescribed chapel!

And I've just about dried out after a very wet ride home on Monday.

Good RTE Wully, lovely spot...like Robert and others, a good chance to get soaked and pick the rest of the South West.

...and the rest.

The Brit Butt Light 2021 rally provided me with an excuse to pick up some more BBT2021 locations so I set off on the preceding Thursday to gather some photos on the way to my base camp in Yorkshire with a view to spending Friday riding round Yorkshire to grab a few more. However... after picking up a couple of locations on the ride up the bike developed an electrical fault which knocked out the running lights to the front and tail/brake light to the rear. What to do? Well, I contacted Triumph West Yorkshire who kindly agreed to squeeze the bike into the workshop on the Friday afternoon (as luck had it they were located right next door to my hotel, too, which helped immensely!). They duly fixed the rear light which got me back to legal/safe for the BBL2021 and would not take any payment for their trouble, so a heartfelt thank you to Triumph West Yorkshire, a much appreciated gesture. Oh, and the two locations which I did manage to grab below.....

Three more please Wully...en route to Morpeth for BBL....
On Sunday after the BBL, I decided to ride from Hull to Cumbria to get 35 Cross Keys Inn then home to Suffolk...in more heat!
Today I looked on my phone and pic is not there, the operator's incompetency I think!

 

[Kim Leeson]

I found it...

Well the weather's good for riding. Anyone still collecting locations?
Less than 3 months left......
Beat that firebreak at the end of October.
