This calls for a race!
cannock chase (its about as central as trails get) , 1 lap, mass start in a megaavelanche style?
Any niche alowed, including drop bar'd wierdo's.
anyone else up for it?

The usual hare and tortoise speed or stamina replys.There is a saying that goes something like. A young bull says to the old bull lets run down the field and shag one of the cows. The old bull replies lets walk down and shag the lot!! For me slow and steady is alot more satisfying.

34 waist? I'm more of a racing snake than you then Rolf
A trim 31 wait here. Its that diet of champions I adopt
Posted 2 years ago # -
29" here
I'm honoured to have been nominated, but certainly not at the moment!
Will Simmons lurked on here, he's been very quick in the past, and has threatened to come back! George Budd certainly used to crop up (Gee), he's bloody fast, although I should be as quick as him when I've actually done some speed work... Dunno if Ben Thomas ever comes on here, he's an Elite now.
Sure there's some very fast not racers too frankly!
[ big head ] I am fairly confident I'm one of very few members to have won an NPS race though, even if it was only Sport [ /big head ]

34" waist my arse. I'm a 31 and not a smidge more.

Surely its not about being the fastest rider. Surely its about being the best all round rider? I would class myself as a good all round rider. I ride quite a few cycling disaplines from road time trials, to MTB xc races to trials riding. I am even racing my BMX on Sunday! As I get older speed doesnt matter to me so much. Its more about the enjoyment and the skills development. I am really in to my jumping at the moment. I just like to ride bikes.

Shaggy's a bit good isn't he?
I'd stand a chance in fastest to 10 pints race but that's about it.Posted 2 years ago # -
Will used to be very quick. He seems to have chucked in racing though.
BTW nick, I don't think you are the only member to have won an NPS sport race
Posted 2 years ago # -
He said.. one of very few

I've been told I'm well hung by a lot women and some married women.

[bigger head]I bet I've won more national/international level events than you though [/bigger head]

Aaah yes, Mr Cockburn, a definite Elite rider among our ranks
Not 12 in that shot, 20, I do still look about 12 though!
Posted 2 years ago # -
Surely its not about being the fastest rider.
It's what I asked.. Best all-round rider or most diverse rider is another thread
I was mainly curious as to how many serious racers there are, and how many expert/elites there are.I'd be doing well in Expert or Master if I didn't have 10kg of spare lard
Posted 2 years ago # -
Well there's definitely 3 experts: Me, Gee and Oli Y, and one Elite: ac282
So, a reasonable number of 'serious' racers. Aracer's obviously no slouch either!

Aracer's obviously no slouch either
Not as fast as you guys on a bike, but pretty good at some other stuff too (but then you knew that?)Posted 2 years ago # -
slight hijack - have you seen Steve James' results at the Gorricks? How quick is that boy (because he is barely a boy after all)?
Posted 2 years ago # -
i'm currently still sport nick (junior last year) but if the 1st few races go well, i'll see if bc will let me move to expert.
up to 3rd cat on the road now, so i can race the easter 4 day!and bikey thats true,
even when it goes to all round riding, i'd say i'm quite good there (up till now others have said i'm good).with rather quick tt times, and decent road racing results etc, then being as quick downhill as up. going out jumping one day, then racing xc the next is what keeps it interesting.

oh, and jcromton is expert as well
