Nice one, chap. I didn't deserve that podium position really, but I'll take it. New pb of crashing 5 times in a single stage. Ride fast, crash, push even harder, then rinse and repeat all the way to the line, losing a minute and a half in the process. Oh well. How did you get on then?

Cheers chap. Just want to get this surgery ASAP now.
Stage 1 must have been tough in the thick mud, when you went down it later.

Stop start for me,had some fast guys go past me,many many times hahaha Sounds grim. Glad I was in the first group out now. It was wet mud for us, so was actually really good fun. The rocky rut at the top was still wild though. I'll see you in the valley for a ride sometime when I'm back on it properly. Just going to be the roadie and gym for me for a while. |
