Hi Mark have got my Wales cards, many thanks. Was surprised to find i had the cards but no return of the completed Merseyside card, how long does that take?

Thanks for all your help. I have sent off for the whole set, and I don't think I'll try actually cycling all the way to the Shetland ferry and back again unless I'm going to pick up clues on the way.

Card Validation

Post by MarkW »

Cards are validated and all BCQ records are maintained by a volunteer who, along with me, set BCQ up after the demise of the Touring Explorers' Award (TEA). Peter Jackson (not to be confused with the Peter Jackson who works at National Office) looks after all the questions too. I'm sure he'll validate your card and return it to you in a few days.

Trust this explains the way it all works

Keep BCQing!

I have now officially started. The [package arrived on Tuesday after a delivery messup (I was out when it arrived so had to arrange redelivery). Wednesday afternoon being university sports afternoon, I thought I'd get a start, and the Winchester clue has been bagged. I used a slightly obcure route, so knocked up 29 rather than the 22 minimum that would normally be needed. I wanted to have a more interesting ride and I had gorgeous weather yesterday (temperatures up to 14, with sunny spells).
Apologies to that guy I overtook on the hill just after North Baddesley who was on a racer. If you're on here, I didn't mean to be spiteful. I just like to do some good speed training on my ride.
