A race named after a song by The Fall, can't beat that now can you?
yeah, a race named after a slayer song would be better...
Not sure you'd get 350 signed up for 'Evil Has No Boundaries 2013' mind.....
I havent really given much consideration to bike or tyres yet having been preoccupied with the important things like excuses thus having undertaken a rigorous period of assessment and trialled numerous different fancy dress costumes I have finally decided on the most appropriate for the conditions which also has some aero benefits.... and a tail...
Still undecided on mid-race nutrition, yeah I get the benefits of the research developed gels and energy bars but until Torq or SiS start producing gummy fried eggs and fizzy cola bottles then its Haribo all the way. The only problem is having to mix up a bag of star max and tangfastics pre race to get teh right variety. I bet Bradley Wiggins has someone to do this for him (probably Chris Froome... ha ha!)

We could have a race in the Marple area and call it "South of Heaven"
I shall bring my mud tyres on saturday and auction them to the highest bidder 🙂
BUT... i don't care. I'm gonna have a massive smile on my face as much as i possibly can, and i plan on enjoying every minute of it since for me it's a celebration that i'm alive and reasonably able bodied after almost dying 9 years ago through heart failure. now, my heart is more or less totally normal, i'm 6+ stone lighter than i was at that time and mentally i'm in the best place i've been in for years.
Fantastic attitude. That's a victory in itself, surely?
Have a good one mate!
and a grin the size of Zippy off the Muppets
You do know Zippy was off Rainbow, don't you?
It's my first HTN, and I'll be doing it on a bike I won't even see until two hours before the start.
A Surly Krampus with 3" tyres, in the mud? Wave at me as you pass :o)
What's all this 'I'm happy to just chug round and enjoy the crack' attitude. I'm only interested in the top slot.
Numero Uno.
Il Campione
Top dog. That's me come Saturday lunch time. 8)
