who's HONCing?

Can we complain enough to put it back?

apparently the author had complaints about flying a drone over the crowd, so he took it down.

There’s always someone complaining…

Fatbike in the mud was a blessing at times but bloody awful in the thick mud – they just float on top – so very exciting at times

My Maxxis Mammoth back tyre is a summer tyre thru & thru so it was a real challenge to get anywhere in the clag – but it certainly made it more fun

Trying to get the clag out of the chainset and forks/stays was hard work with the rubbish sticks close to hand 🙂

Official photos are now available on the Sussex Sport site.

Cotswold TV report on HONC

Great video hoopyfrood! I am 1 min 15 secs riding through town.

Im in as well , 30 odd seconds in 🙂 .. looking really fat !

I’m there, 7 seconds in!! 😀 Concentrating on the turn coming up!!

Anyone else think the photos are bloody expensive?

yeah – way too much

I managed to get on video twice. My 6 seconds of fame… 🙂

They are expensive, I bought one and the downloads quality is poor. Disappointed.

a Highlight for me was seeing a chap on a Cross Bike overtake me on the final gravel descent like i was sat still he was barely touching the ground and testament to how to ride a cross bike. I was half expecting to have to pick him up in bits he was moving that quickly.

What bike and what was he wearing?

I wasn’t hanging about on my Saxon Cross (was wearing green baggy shorts and a black and white Morvelo long sleeve top), but know a couple of very fast mates were on their CX bikes and got even faster final descent segment times than I did!

Pretty sure it was Lycra, but can’t remember now.
