No, I was watching. Stood by the switchbacks at the end of the lap and was dissapointed to only see 1 person come off 🙂
There were several people running the last part, in fact one of the Team MK riders had exactly the same prob as you on the last lap.
Afterwards they were encouraging people to come back and ride the course to keep the grass short, I guess you won't be taking up their offer!!
I did one of the first ever crosses at Hillingdon years ago and vowed never to return but yesterday I did as I've entered the nationals and don't want to come last so need the racing.
I actually quite enjoyed the course, mix of power and tech but I would agree that 4 sets of dead turns was too much. They did make the lap take a long time though which meant there weren't any problems with lapped riders. Quite pleased with 5th place and teh fact my bikes were't covered in mud at the end 🙂
Didn't go Sunday, did my number of required races and my results have been going backwards. So I went out with the roadies instead.
Nope not planning to go and ride round there in a hurry Jase. Plenty of nice terrain around here without needing to drive for an hour!
Well done leggyblonde.
hammerite - was it your step son who helped the scorers? If so thanks to him - he did a good job which was appreciated by the scorers when all of the other volunteers disappeared!
leggyblonde - that you then Phil?
Yes it was my stepson LL. I always knew his big gob would come in useful at some point!! I had to do a double take when I heard my number being shouted for the first time and recognised the voice.
