Julie, thanks for this. We usually manage to field a few of us for this classic and it would be a shame to miss it due to the new arrangements. If they get the full 500 it'll be quite a crush at the bottleneck where we turn off the road.

Re TF's Comment ~ Yes, this'll really put the pressure on you. As Borrowdale entries open on Duddon Day, you'll not only have to finish to get a "qualifier" but you'll have to to back in time before all the entries are filled.

Go for it!
