People,

Me, WavyDavy, DNC and 'SomeOtherBloke" are doing the HUMM again this
year. It's an orienteering through Spanish mountains thing, where we
have to hit waypoints (hopefully not like I did last year) without
having the aid of GPS etc. All we get is a roadbook and a map. They
assume we have common sense (hah).

Although the HUMM itself is for our own pleasure, we (again) thought it
might be a good idea to attach a charity to it. So please, if you can
spare a few bob, be generous:

Just to clarify: none of the funds we raise is to cover our costs, all
our own costs are (naturally) paid for by ourselves

If I wasn't pissing off on another trip, I'd have comre along.

Maybe next year when we get back.

Good, because if this was one of those "I fancy a biking holiday in
India and I know how I can get someone else to pay for it" things[1], I
wouldn't have donated. And I might have been a little bit rude.

YH�

[1] Seriously these requests really, really, really get up my bloody
nose.

Oh hell no. All the costs are being borne by us, cos it's a trip for
fun. I'm sure it won't turn out to be a cheap event but hey ho.

Thanks!

By the way, at the end of the trip (assuming I make the end) I'll have
increased my off road riding experience by >100%.

<gulp>
