Mid-Madwoman’s Hot Stones – 8 July 2026

A glorious weekend with a big DPFR turnout enjoying the power boat trip over from Knapdale or the more traditional trip from Kintyre or Arran for some.

At the sharp end Es apparently arrived to the 3 Arch bridge with Rob Jebb & Ben Bardsley. Rob decided not to change his shoes for road shoes unlike the others & sped away to win with Es second. Dark Peak men were the first mens team with the counters being Es, Rob & Jon. Gavin did a PB, a fine effort given the heat.
