Yes, bit of a reality check getting off the plane at Bristol yesterday evening to rain, gales and cool temps.
I found a small number of photos on Pinkbike here[/url]. Unfortunately I was standing next to the photographer when he took the one of riders drinking from the village fountain, so am not in it.
danbo, I’ll watch that later at home. Which of the Surrey Hills guys were you? I assume you were with Si/Andy etc? Tis I, Dave, from QECP team (bearded one) 🙂
We feature at 1:13 in the official vid – screaming it down Double Header (probably just before I fell off) lol!
Double Header footage
+ more stages on my channel there, I’m in process of uploading them.
Really enjoyed the event, some mental trails to ride down at full chat.. Atmosphere was brill too.
Well done everyone who made it to the end and survived the storm on day 1.
That storm was incredible. We’d just cycled back from stage 2, and I was thinking how lucky we were with the weather! Saw some very dark clouds whilst at train, and in the time my mate took a dump, it had changed from sun to full on storm! Some chap came back later who was on s2 at the time. A tree fell and broke his bars and injured his arm! very close!
