Lovely cold and frosty day and an interesting course using a big horse ring and lots and lots of very slippy corners. It felt like ice skating most of the time. It was also a good interesting course for the under 10s and 12s as they used much of the lumpy stuff that we did. Sadly i seemed to be in a different race than most of my usual sparring partners...too much Christmas spirit maybe :)

    Well done to all that raced today. All hands on deck for the last one at Bury St Edmunds. We might even have a shot at 1st place in the team if we do well and Welwyn not so well. Will send out some pics later

    ...so thats what the front of a cx race looks like!...looks really easy up there, no big lads falling off in front of you.

    good video, can you let me know the camera details Theo?

    Mr grimace up there looks like he is battling against a big fan!

    Great video Theo. Looks like the angle was just right. Interesting to see the different styles for those corners. Did Sean Dunlea do a bike change?

    Good of your dad to let you through on the swithcbacks.
  • Theo-saurusTheo-saurus
    That was Shelton not my dad! yes Sean did a bike change

    Good race all round in fact. Enjoyed watching that.
