Leg 2 - Steve Angus & Nick Ogden
Leg 3 - Dave Birch & Dave Prosser
Leg 4 - Dave Loan & Andrew Slattery

Reserve - Dave Troman

I've tried to include those who volunteered early and those who didn't get a run last year but if anybody on the team is struggling to make it please let me know ASAP as (unusually) there are more volunteers than team places available.

Thanks

Ian Hodgson Relay

With the fell relay season fast approaching, and that some of the teams are planning to recce their respective legs, I've attached a link to the Horwich RMI site, who have kindly generated a set of maps that can be downloaded and printed. As far as I'm aware nothing has changed...

Press if you fancy John Nicoll.

Running order for the Open (so far) is:

Leg 1 - Steady Sam and John Nicholl

Leg 2 - Fatty Winskill and Mark Lamborghini

Leg 3 - Jonny Handsome Hulme and Leeroy Newton

Leg 4 - Pistolero Pete Berty Beef Contador (The Boy) George and '2 legs' Edis
