Kirkcaldy Round 1 - cue funny accents ๐
10pm tonight ITV4
http://www.tourseries.co.uk/tourseries/venues/index.php
and repeated tommorow morning and another race on friday night on tv.
BEWARE OPENING THE ABOVE LINK WILL TELL YOU WHO WONE TONIGHT, IT WAS ................ AND THEY DID WELL.
It's in Durham tomorrow night, the racing's brilliant, very technical course, get yourselves there if you're nearby, it's the fourth year in a row it's been held there, I think it's the only venue outside of London that it goes to every year.
Stoke on trent , Durham also has the cobbles, so lots of crashes.
Well it started off well but then Hugh Porter started commentating... ๐
Great race and 2 nasty falls, they said they had been taken away to hospital, but didnt say if it was A and E, EMERGENCY ROOM, nhs drop in centre, or minor injuries unit.
I was there on the night, missed the crashes though. ๐ฟ
I rained for the warm up races, there were loads of crashes on the wet cobbles.
I can confirm it was like an ice rink when the rain started, I nearly rode over my team mate when he went down.
Im sure it rained last year when the pro's were racing and they were falling all over the place, but I cant find a clip of it anywhere ๐
I thought the Kirkcaldy course was a bit mickey mouse.
I never saw Mickey anywhere.
Great TV for last night but just too bl00dy late. I've been shattered all day!
its on itv player and repeated next day in the am.
Durham was good tonight, got a great spot on bend at the bottom of a steep cobbled hill (croosgate and south street), nice and dry so no big pile ups, however a few over cooked the corner and ran close to us on the way out and loads of chains dropping off on the climb away up the next cobbled section.
will Durham be on the telly? I used to live up near Crossgate and hated those damn cobbles - on all forms of transport, not least my feet.
ITV4 10pm Friday or 9am Sat I think
Round 2 from Durham just started on ITV4 now .
Bit of a boring race, no crashes etc,
Stoke on trent , tuesday night, and on itv4 wednesday.
I will be there hopefully,
Just got back from the Stoke on Trent race, fantastic speeds and bike handling, and some good crashes thankfully nobody to seriously hurt, cuts bruises etc.
You definately feel old when the riders havent developed leg hair and most look about to reach puberty.
also got a water bottle thrown at/to me, thanks.
ITV4 wednesday night at 22.00 and i player later
