No doubt the scumbags will be back sniffing around the valley with such an event on.
Was down in innerleithen today, looks a bit wetter at gt especially with the snow still lingering but what a day! Compensation for last year I think
Incredible weather, out on my local hills above largs, canny believe how much drier they are since Wednesday!. Best of luck tomorrow everyone, especially mr sorefingers, good to see him back.... 
Well that was quite good fun.
Aye, fantastic.
The end of S4 was just sublime. So much flow.
Made a bit of an arse of Mud & Roots and Ponduro but pretty chuffed apart from that.
I loved ponduro at tweedlove last year.
Aye Ponduro and Mud and Roots were easily the most challenging sections but so much drier than yesterday! For a first timer I feel really fortunate to have done my first Velluljah this year.
Just arrived back home after dropping Abigale back at Uni. She enjoyed every minute of it. Great weekend, well run yet again. It's a long time since I've been to Scotland and had good weather.

I absolutely love mud and roots- it's just a perfect gradient, it's basically as fast as you want it to be, you can tiptoe it if you're not too sure or you can absolutely bomb it if you want. And somehow it's the home of endless near misses, I've never actually crashed on it but I've had every sort of heroic save there is.
Loved the whole weekend, couple of awesome days riding with Boardinbob, quite happy with my riding,plan was to try & be smooth, stay on my bike and dont overcook things which I did, mud & roots I felt at home on, very like some of the stuff at Dunoon over the winter which I ride on a regular basis, tried to play a tactical card on stage four, lot of pedalling and knew I would suffer, took it a wee bit too easy, personal aim was to stay under 30mins which I did at 29mins,if I cut out Greggs award winning bridies I may move up the table a little, all in all a fantastic weekend ๐
Tracey - Am I imagining that on the results sheet I saw that Abigale won the Juniors?
(just checked and yes) - nearly 3 minutes in front of 2nd place and a time that would have got her 6th in Seniors. Very well done!
Yes she was well pleased with the result, its only the second time out on the bike and she is still getting used to to it. Its my job tonight to get it all clean and lubed up for the next outing.
Spotted in the results that two "comedians" entered under the names Nigel Farage and Silvio Berlusconi ๐ ๐
Haha we were with Berlusconi and Farage all the way from the start of stage 2. They were actually quite humorous. From Worcesteshire supposedly.
