CMSMJ1 Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 I'll try get a couple hours off to come hang out at the stage 2 pitstop - that'll be mid afternoon won't it? That run up Sheffield/Huddersfield is shite at that time. I can remember seeing Jamie/Mike on the first LDU while I was sat in my homewards bound traffic jam and they chugged past on the A61 in Sheffield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
