Re: BRIC
Good decision, and you need to have something to aim for. I'm going to enter as well.

I bit the bullet and entered too. Hoping to redeem myself after a poor showing at the Scottish at the weekend.
Lightweight again. Gonna have to try and be smarter with my diet this time, so I have more energy on the day.

I suspect this will be a much bigger field and some very strong LWTs. Around 6:15 won last year

It's all relative, but even though it feels like a poor showing, it wasn't seen like that by us.DNA_Rower wrote: ↑November 23rd, 2020, 12:47 pmI bit the bullet and entered too. Hoping to redeem myself after a poor showing at the Scottish at the weekend.

Hopefully you will have enough time to adjust, and your recent 2k will have also sharpened you up.

Re: BRIC
err... I seemed to have had a rash moment this evening and signed up for the 2k just before the deadline for entries closed
So now have 12 days to do some sharpening... trouble is the pencil is blunt and has previously been dropped so breaks all the time
If was a sort of 'taking part' conversation with my son but he declined, so it's just me.
