Thanks Dan - very useful
-
We had no trouble getting there or getting home - Pippa Sparks told everyone to stay at home so the roads were nice and quiet for us (see smug face!). Mark was unlucky with the lorry thing I think It was snowing when we arrived and the Youth race s…

Thank for reminder Dan. And the website works just fine! There doesn't seem to be quite such a rush for this one though - can't think why!
-
Typically this is the only Eastern race that I'm not doing! Hopefully BC have done that thing that Richard said. I must let Brian know the good news!
-
I'm with Father Christmas- I thought it was a great course and I agree one where the training pays off - for young and old alike. The more corners the better for me and this one had a few. We went to the Nationals on Sunday (Sam took part, I was a…

Thanks Stuart. The website is working now.

I wrote to BC about this back in Oct and got the response below. I think the answer is weak and borders on the insulting (particularly the last paragraph) and I have written back telling them so. I have written another email to him again today. Su…

I'm up for the senior event - as last week proved, an hour's ride is no problem for us older gentlemen!
-
William got home and told his Mum he came 4th - missing out the words 'from last'. All good fun though and hopefully he'll do another. For my part a slightly dispiriting affair of my own making. I had a cracking start and got into 3rd place at the…

Tim - if you click through the 'coming soon' it takes you through to the entry screen and you can enter as normal. This will probably lead to more than 80 riders in our race but I've got a confirmation email so I reckon that'll do.

Bc website now says it’s entirely fully booked across all cats. That can’t be right! Daniel Tim fields mark are all in though
-
Thanks N and Sal - please come along for 8.45/9 and meet me at the start line with the other marshals and I'll find you a job! Pete
-
We are now short of volunteers for marshals. If anyone else could spare some time on Sunday it would be much appreciated.
-
Does this Bridgey one have corners? If so that's good for me too.
-
It seems I can make 23rd Dec after all. It looks like this is the poll winning date now.
-
Hi all Thank you for all who have signed up to help on Sunday. We just about have enough helpers for the day. If anybody else can help, we could still do with a couple more marshals ideally (particularly for the midday race). Please let us know i…

Dec 23rd is too close to Xmas for me and we'll be up North. My preference would be 2nd Dec but maybe the January dates
-
Sam and I went back for more fun at Langdon Hills and the last of the Mud Sweat and Gears for this season. Must admit my legs were a bit achy in the morning but once I'd ridden the practice lap I quickly forgot about that. After overnight rain the …
-
Sam and I would be interested. Our preference would be the longer route, either mtb or cx Pete
-
That's that done then! I managed to raise over £1800 for the charity and I'm pleased with that. Thanks for your contributions. I also managed a PB today at 5 hours 11mins despite it being a bit windier this year. I know there are people in the c…
-
The results will be on the MSG website in a day or so. There were some provisional results at the venue. After a near miss in practice I had a bravery failure and stuck mostly to the B lines this time but I don't think the time penalties were too b…
-
Hi Mark Sam will come along.
-
Thanks Simon we enjoyed the ride and the good company. I think I ache more than Sam today! Sam was beginning to tire at the end and so we missed the last bit of off-road but still completed 48 miles. I think the distance was about his limit this y…
-
Thanks Simon. Sam and I will join you too
-
Hi Harley Great idea. Sam will be there.
-
Southern fried chicken burger and lemonade for Sam please
-
Sam and I will be there on Thursday
-
It was a great course with a mix of fast flowing curves and off cambers (which I loved) and slogs up hills (which I loved less!). The provisional results are on the London League website (except the U12 / U10's) Youth Adam Lightfoot 3rd Sam Danie…
-
Yes that was a good one for me. A few sharp hills and some fast descents with no mud to slow you down. I do admit to showboating round that corner but it got a good cheer every time! Sam bumped his head when he fell which initially disorientated …

15th Jan good for me.
