    I almost hesitate to mention it, but this March is the 5th anniversary of
    the first ever BOTAFOT run (before it was even known as the BOTAFOT run,
    back when it was the "Look there's Wik's bike <pause> and there's Wik" run).

    Was anything planned to mark this historical erm thingy?

    TS50? [1]

    [1]Akkshirley the TS50 has done the BOTAFOT, along with Badger's daughter on
    her Gilera DNA.

    Seconded.
    As a slower rider it is actually quite embarassing when everyone has to keep
    stopping for you to catch up.

    I wouldn't mind doing another AnniFOT if it's on.
    What about running two groups with the slower group going first?

    Wouldn't it be better to split into groups? Quick, steady and "****
    Petrolcan"?

    Go for it!

    Once you sort out the details let me know and I'll see if I can make it: I
    haven't done anything like that for ages.

  13. Me gustaría participar, pero creo que no estará posible.

    Did anyone take over the KoTLship yet?

    Last night, Paul - and stop me if this is upsetting - I had a dream
    that you had died. Very sad, so soon after your retirement, and at
    such a young age. And, apparently, I didn't get the blackbird.

  15. 3 minutes silence followed by the entire route being strewn with rose
    petals. It's what the BOTAFOT would have wanted.

    Me. In theory. But in true UKRM style, I haven't had time to anything
    with it or organise anything.

    I'm likely not going to be around to do anything anniversary run wise,
    so I propose that KOTL'ship and organisation of said run is passed to
    Oldbloke, as he seems to live the nearest, knows the route etc etc.

    any objections?

  19. I don't mind doing it, but as I have no webspace atm, I would need someone
    to stick up the list in all it's glory.

    If you do the organising, I can host the list for you.
