Hi All,

A slight change of plan and option for a few of us. A number of us need to get back into harrogate circa 12pm so that we can get back to family, friends, guests etc but we still want to experience and make the most of the closed roads. Our plan is to get up to Harewood and then fly down the closed roads at a strong Nova train pace all the way over to grassington/embssay or skipton (time dependent) cut back across to Killinghall and then fly down from killinghall into harrogate and sprint finish up parliament street! To do this and after some discussion we need to leave Prologue at 8am sharp.

Anyway thats the first draft of the plan, let me know if you are in so we know to wait.

I don't fancy my chances at a 'strong Nova train pace', so we're going to stick to the original plan. We're aiming to be at Prologue for 8am and leaving at 8:30am.

I'm either going for option 1 or option 3, riding with Caroline and Samantha from Prologue at 8:30 out and back to take in the atmosphere.
