Go vegan!!! I shouted that a few times today - fair play to him. All that way on no meat!!!???
the two guys on the bmx & kid's mtb were killing it all day. Overtook plenty of people on geared bikes; fair play to them.
some niche stuff here [url= http://www.flickr.com/photos/rocketdog/sets/72157626760634439/ ]Singulars at the BBF[/url]
Thought the fat biffer vegan had snapped his bike last week? 😉
Not done this event yet.. looks like you had cracking conditions! nice n dry 🙂
How many singulars did you spot RD? They're starting to look a bit common place. There must've been at least 5 of them at the WRT last weekend... don't remember seeing an Orange 5 though...
Quite a few, in fact quite a lot of 29ersthe of all types inc a lovely spesh FSR
Singulars aren't common, Dan the 5th just rides so quick you see him a lot!

@grahamh - LOL. I was hoping you didn't get that one! Almost ended up hitting the tree and maybe you... Thanks though
#146
RD, that is just a excuse fir a singular **** fest........ 😉
I'm not on any of them! 😀
What! - none of my mankini?!
DrP
!
Showed it to the wife. Her response: roll eyes and "nice"!
DrP
isn't the thong bit supposed to be at the back? #chaffe-tastic
Its even thinner at the back!
I was going to wear JUST the mankini, but my 'bits' would have spilt everywhere - not a good look....
Plus, there were kids about!
DrP
Go vegas!
Great day yesterday, and some great pics here - thanks.
Go Vegas!!
Great pics Rocketdog. Chuffed that you got a few of me on my Pegasus. I'll download them a bit later & send you a donation. Cheers!
it was you i shouted "pegasus + lefty, it's got to be pedalhead" to wasn't it? or was there a few running that combo?
as said above, there were a few Singulars about

Yeah I think I was the only person there with that combo. Managed 2nd in Solo Singlespeed cat, well chuffed. There's no beating Dan though!
nice result, so Singular top 2 podium then!
yeah cheers. I think I confused everyone because I was wearing my Singular kit, although I don't ride for them...I just like the bike (and the kit!) 😀
Keep performing like that and maybe Sam'll give you your next frame for free?!
I saw you rOcKeTdOg, but looks like your camera didn't see me. Good pics of a great event though, cheers.
you should be able to download the pics if you see yourself or one that you like
I think I may be being thick but how do you download them? Awesome pics by the way nice to see a bit of variation in the locations they were shot from rather than the obligatory camp out in one spot type affair.
Iain
Keep performing like that and maybe Sam'll give you your next frame for free?!
heh wouldn't that be nice (though I'd settle for a new top...Sam? 😉 ).
Rocketdog, have sent a donation your way. Some of the pics have download disabled. These two for example (unless I'm being an idiot...which is entirely possible)...

Why, DrP; why?
don't suppose rocketdog or anyone else has a photo of me at the finish? I was the last person across the line before 9pm. I was riding a silver Yeti 575 with double vision. Would love a picture of me as it was quite a memorable moment.
Thanks to all those who screamed, clapped and shouted on my last lap.
pics should be ok to download now the ones in the "singulars at BBF" had different permissions to the "bristolbikefest" set
Ian Gillam at the top right of the pic is an + button to enlarge, click it and you should go to the view on black option, then click view all sizes and choose which to download
alternatively just right click on the pic and you should get a choice of sizes to download...oh and yea, i like quirky angles, but get a bit worried i'm going to startle riders by being behind trees etc!
nice one, all good now 🙂
I will go through all the photos checking but in the off chance is there any photos of the mixed pair 267??? Please.
Hurray, I'm hero of the day! That's never happened before! Thanks for the photo Rocketdog.
There were four of us, riding all four silly bikes. We raised over £1000 for Macmillan Cancer Support. Thanks to anyone who donated or sponsored us.
no problem T Rex, legendary riding!

Thanks...oh how I look like a happy bunny!
DrP - Are you wearing that for the Big Bike Bash lake jump?
I was looking for 222, Ti soda with delectable pink highlights rider in black with lime green Oakleys 😉 borrowed the wife's bike, but couldnt find one.
Nice photo set though, enjoyed it. Don't fancy the course today though in all that rain!
Thanks for the pic.
No results up yet, but I think I was 5th solo singlespeed with 21 laps.
More importantly, I beat KingTut.
If anyone was riding the singletrack and could hear heckling from behind along the lines of "Hey mate, you're doing really well. You're almost as fast as a veteran on a singlespeed 29er". That was me. 😛
Great photos RD, I really like the quirky angles. Didn't see you, can't believe I missed DrP and his mankini either... Great event and course though, also wouldn't fancy it in all of today's rain!
the frame held together then?
Nice pics rOcKeTdOg, you got T-Rex good. Not sure how mine came out, sorting through them now. Team Inappropriate included the BMX, a fixie commuter and a Santa Cruz Super 8. Hats off to them
hey Graham. Good to talk to you on the trail, albeit briefly. Good effort on the result!
Great pictures RD. Anyone know if Team Inappropriate have a Justgiving page or the like? They were rattling a bucket but I only had about 20p on me.
dammit. I even rode a singular and still no pic! 🙁
good pics of other LVIS riders though so.you're forgiven.
Nice one T-Rex, have plugged you on our Arsebook page.
Clubber, he'd need photo stitching software just to get you in shot!
clubber check my album out - there may be one of you in there....[url= http://s1092.photobucket.com/albums/i404/skinheadjc/Bristol%20Bikefest%202011/#!cpZZ2QQtppZZ20 ]Linky[/url]
ah Dr P the camera adds at least 5 lbs!
respect on the last lap wheelie one handed salute-see you next year, hopefully fitter and faster!
Nathan
Dylan I think Mr agreeable needs a stern word from barry for that!
its ok. the dwarf's just upset because no one has a poweful enough zoom to get him to be visible...
Cracking event, don't suppose anyone got any pics of team no. 35?
clubber - Member
dammit. I even rode a singular and still no pic
i saw you, realised it was you but by then you had gone past, i'd even got my wide angle lens too
nice photo's, is rider 219 of these woods?
Curious to know if that's a 29er with tubs?
That's Gareth Jones - Singular rider & yes, tubs on Enve (I think) rims.
Nice pics RD btw.
Lovely course, was still enjoying it 11hrs it. 259 - 3rd in the super niche singlespeed/old gits pairs cat 🙂
Thanks John, just checked the Dugast website, didn't realise they did the Rhino in a 29er.

About to go through my million pix now... any race number to look out for ?

Before I do the trawl through .. I'll wait a bit to get a collection of numbers.
So keep adding here on this thread.
54 please!
I searched through all 584 of Rocketdog's photos and there were none of 54 😆
Someone fired a very well timed flash at me as I was going over one of the little drops on the course and I'd like to see the photo... 130, light blue top - but have no idea who the photographer was!
Great seeing everyone's pics 🙂 monkeyboy like the dead stuff interspersed with pics from a bike race 😉
T-Rex, 289 and 290 from knottie8's pics show Oli on the BMX
