Well, I survived. Don’t think I’ll be troubling the results at all.
As a riding mate said at the end, with the Rocket I brought a bazooka to a knife fight! Was getting left for dead on the open grassy stuff, but caught up on that twisty stuff through the woods. Guessing loads of riders there were mainly road as I’ve rarely seen such a scary collection of bike handling skills and line choices as I did through that bit tonight!
Oddly, would have liked the race longer – didn’t really get warmed up until lap 4 and then it was nearly over.
Will deffo do some more, but will take the hardtail next time!
Nice to (briefly) meet another STWer.
