There are two jerseys i have number two.The northern one it is now called.You should not have to pay for a jersey.Please wait for number one the southern one to surface.Or along the way.Number one could be posted to you.So you could take part.It would not be right for you to pay.

Has maggot still got it then?
Who's coordinating the southern one?
It seems to be making as much progress as an asmatic ant carrying two large bags of shopping.

no he doesn't have to you're right but if he WANTS to buy one and set it off then i don't see what's wrong with that.

if maggot's got it and is hogging it, then i've no doubt it's for legitimate reasons, but there's no sense in putting everything on hold while we wait for it not knowing what the status is.

What's the point? If everyone has a jersey and rides it to somewhere, it isn't really in the spirit of a relay is it?

He's probably flogged it on ebay, and legged it with the proceeds

Do you have to own one to take part then?

EVERYONE doesn't, do they - but a jersey being stuffed in someone's drawer and forgotten about while they're busy with other matters isn't really in the spirit of it either, is it?

no course you don't have to OWN one to take part. Who owns it shouldn't be important, and you shouldn't buy one if the financial outlay is a burden or if you are expecting a return on your investment.

But, if people DO choose to simply buy one and start it off if they want to, then it's going to keep interest levels much higher than if they want to take part and are getting impatient waiting for it, all I'm saying is there shouldn't be any preconceived 'rule' that that's 'not allowed' or such like.

Shaun was given 2 of the mis-spelt jerseys as freebies for this relay, so why would anyone want to buy one and then give it away?!

I'm sure there must be a good reason for User76 not posting recently.
Would it not be better to try and get hold of him first, rather than start off with another one

Agreed - I'm sure when he can he will reappear. Though I don't see a problem having 3 jerseys on the go since we have another being supplied. What about an Eastern jersey?

Yes i am going to arrange with my mates to go down to Ladybower to try our off road bikes as soon as possible it will be a saturday.We are talking together this weekend.I will hold the spare southern jersey as long as i can.If no one wants to use it for the relay i will send it back.I do hope maggot can be found.And a third jersey would be an advantage to include a lot more riders.
