[Closed] Steel City DH 2012

£10 now cos you've changed it

Looks like a ventrilaquist doll doesnt he

about as wooden as his dad?

Are you feeding that lad Haribos ? What time did he finally get to sleep 😉

Feeding? He threw half of them at pook who was trackside at the bottom of the slope 😆

He fell asleep in the car and slept like a baby when we got back. I think it was all that playing in the earth etc that did it. Mrshora thinks toddlers should live in clean/sterile environments

simonm - i "know" fairhurst not pinhead

only know him off here mind, looking forward to meeting up in a few weeks when he and his partner are up in Rochdale for their annual Marrow growers festival.

simon M - what number were you? I can't tell from your photo 😕

Pinhead - this was never billed as a DH event - I couldn't enter for various reasons but right from the launch the organisers were promoting the event as being more suited to AM bike than a DH bike.

Katie even got her scar signed by the main man[img] [/img]

Hope she's doing well in whatever she's recovering from...

Pook - Member

what were you riding/what number were you?

I was number 84 and riding a blue n white giant glory. 🙂

I was the one giving everybody grief with my pan and pedal spanner clanger setup.

Ace day, does anyone know how to find out the winning raffle numbers?

lgb - I'll have a look for you later

lambo bigger prizes were kept for people who weren't there and we'll be in touch with anyone who won. When we got down to smaller things (like t shirts etc) we drew until someone shouted in the arena or we'd be living at the post office for a while!

Thanks Dashed

She had a operation to correct her scoliosis in July last year and was out of biking and boarding till she got the all clear at the end of January. She has just had a weeks boarding in the Alps and is in the process of getting fit on her bike ready for this years Alps trip

Sorry LGB, I've been through my pics and I must have missed you (you were probably going too fast for me)

I was 152 Pook

you may have seen me on the floor, just before the drop on my second run 😉

I'll have a look to tonight. What colour top/bike/lid?

Sorry LGB, I've been through my pics and I must have missed you (you were probably going too fast for me)

Thanks for looking anyway 🙂

I've ended up buying one off roots and rain, partly because the profits are going to Woodhead mountain rescue. Good cause and one we all hope not to need!

LGB

I will look through Katies pics tonight as I think ther is one of you

Nope that is my good friend Cath!

I wear a neck brace, have a black TLD helmet and only wear knee pads (not full armour) 🙂

But thanks for looking and I'm sure Cath will appreciate the photo!

looking good off that drop

Simons, in answer to the question who's that guy, well that's big Matt from 18 bikes. And a little aside on the journalistic front, Jon from justridingalong was racing on his 650b wheels... Not sure how he did though as I can't find any results sheets anywhere?

nick - si and matt are best mates - it was a piss take q

Results are on Roots and Rain

Jon got 2nd in Masters.

Is that two DH first in this race ?
First win at a DH race for a 29er and first podium at a DH race for 650b wheels ?

Cheers cruz, silly me!
