Proper old style cross country racing.
Climbing over walls. Throwing the bike across the river, then wading across to pick it up. 😀
Plenty of single speeds in there too.
The commentary is ace 😆
"He was the head of the cheese counter at the Co-op...." genius
excellent find
superbe 8)
That is fantastic
Mental. And some of them were actually smiling.
He's a football referee - trains by running backwards down the road. He's been run over twice.
😀
Quality find.
And some fixies, judging from the single brake lever.
Singlespeed was very very common back then, nearly all clubmen rode it.
Best thing I've seen all year. Bring back river crossings in Cyclocross.
ha ha
he used to run down the road backwards, he's been run over twice
proper hardcore event that, I wouldn't fancy it much
Brilliant video - really enjoyed it.
Excellent commentary 🙂
😕most of it's running actually - you cannot ride it
Someone needs to work out where it is, and arrange a re-enactment 🙂
I'd imagine a few of us have done a similar route to that escaping from the girlfriends old man when he's come home early and caught us with the pants down......Oh, only me then. 😳
Fantastic... what wonderful commentary!
Thanks!
some of theem needed snorkles for river crossin, that's genius funniest thing I've seen for a while
Superb video, check the size of the gear that guys pushing @ 4.33.
Commentator "Look at that young lads hair, needs a short back and sides"
Wonderful 🙂
loved it. ta.
i like the brewery driver with the "mountain bike"
or cowhorns as I knew them.
@IanMunroe its North of Newcastle, around Bolam area
Wow. Brilliant.
No suspension, no gears (for some), no freewheel, no helmet, no sense, no feeling. And all of them smiling throughout. Rock. Hard.
Ace.
Love the bit where he says he moved the river crossing. 😀
Liked the quote about the boy with the quiff that kept blinding him.
