Before we get any further - has someone been to the bridge and confirmed? I wouldn't put it past a North Yorkshire office to have missed the memo on the cancellation.
I realise its a significant effort, but could the race be moved onto the Crayke circuit - a long roll out around the South of the Farlington course, the flag dropping after Stillington. Or head for Brandsby on the chaingang route. The University lot sited their finish at the bottom of the Crayke hill, before the lay-by with the big heap of gravel. I wouldn't suggest sending a vets race up Yearsley! Perhaps a more lumpy circuit than we wanted, but worth a shot? Also, I think it needs only two or three of Rich's crew to marshal it - he might do the emergency paperwork without additional charge.
