www.strava.com/routes/5212595
There's a crazy bit on the route, at Milltown, because Strava are using OSM, but the road is present on Google Maps.

Hi,

I'd love to get involved in this. If anyone would like to share an apartment it would be great to get in on that. Previous room-mates have described me as "moderately interesting" and "tolerable", so you'd be in for a real treat.

It's my first year with the club and not sure the best/accepted way to go about this, so hopefully this works!

Cheers.

A1, Sinead!

Are rooms already reserved for Orwell, does anyone know? If so, I can ring them to stake a claim once we reckon we'll have numbers to fill the room/apt.
