Mini HTN?
By height or age?
I'll mention it to the youngest, she is 29 though.
It is like a casserole though, spot on:
Strangely brown, with various unrecognisable, tough lumpy bits.
Oooh that sounds interesting..would anyone bring their kids for the Mini-HTN?
It's horrid.
Count me in.
Oh no, already which bike dilemmas in my head. CX bike = definately faster but BLOODY uncomfortable.

I'll bring mine. Whether they like it or not. It'll toughen the little buggers up. Will they have to go darn't pit?

There will no doubt be a preview ride or two followed by an attempt to destroy the carpets in Costa Coffee, so you can make your mind up.
IMHO CX is way more scary. I have nearly "done myself a mischief" on the berm section before now.
I might enter my son in the mini-HtN. He will be 12 then.
But hang on a minute, Last year he managed three teams in the summer HtN that all won their category, so maybe I'll just keep him as a manager!
Can the descents have mincey sections for the cxers? I'll happily get out of the way on the climbs...
;o)

Nope. It is up to you whether you go down on your wheels, feet or face.
A spectacular "off" will result in that section being named in your honour. We already have "Rooley's Chin" and "Winkie's Wipeout". After the revelation earlier in this post from Chipps the car park climb could now become "The Disco Slipper Grave Yard".
Good old winkie. Can't wait for htn next year

Ah, but ride a lashed-up SS cross bike without working brakes, and we'll have to reverse those requirements - terrifying down, and tortuous up.
I'll be signed up. and, if I haven't sold that death-iron by then, I'll ride it again.
tthew, your options are singlespeed or broken bike, not much of a choice 😀 serves you right for buying a commenfail ! have you got the replacement yet
miniEd would be 14 months old by that point, anyone reckon I can get her on a balance bike and race ready?
Would anybody be interested in paying a couple of quid extra to use an off-site car park with shower facilities and toilets? We’re going to have a word with the local Rugby club who are situated just outside the park gates. They also have a rather fabulous/massive bar for a post race pint.
The usual event car park without toilets and showers will still be available.

Ed, drag the kid on a sledge.

If the broken frame isn't replaced by the end of February, I'll be somewhat disappointed, but it's not done yet.singlespeed or broken bike
More mince than a Pukka Beef and Onion pie down there for me last year 😀IMHO CX is way more scary. I have nearly "done myself a mischief" on the berm section before now.
for the first time ever, I'm going to be able to actually take part at the next one.
I might even give it marks out of 10 afterwards.
(I'm very excited BTW)
