BCN Challenge 2011 Day One

Just a few photos of the great time we had on Indigo Dream doing the BCN Challenge
For those of you who are not aware what the BCN Challenge is, a small synopsy, Narrowboats are entered into a 30 hour frenzy, thrashing around the Birmingham Canal Network, trying to accumulate as many miles, locks and arms aswell as trying to answer question(like a treaure hunt), to gain points but points don't mean prizes just glory.
.

Nb Wandering Bark, Captain Ahab, preceding Indigo Dream in to the first Lock of the Wolverhampton Flight 30hrs ahead of them.



Happy Crew












More to follow.

  1. I can't believe how lucky we were to have such an efficient and effective team. Hope the knee is ok and that you have recovered from the caffeine overdose - I never realised that we were being fed triple lattes .... and as for your brown milk, well yes.

  2. Richard, I really enjoyed crewing for Indigo Dream, An effective team is only so if lead by an effective skipper and planner, great time, great route, great cafe Sue, Brilliant I slept for a straight ten hours last night, un-heard of for me. Thank you all for a great time.
