Joe Low Posted January 27, 2014 Share ......., what are the okes upfront doing at that stage? Braking and accelerating trying to break the bunch is just plain stupid.... What; were they acting like they were in a race or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottCM Posted January 27, 2014 Share Was my first road race on my HT and Knobblies, 4:13. Man its hard cycling a whole race on your own, especially in yesterdays wind while dragging a MTB along. Was very fun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was very fun though.There was a guy in BL on a giant anthem in a 3towers race jersey....he didn't do too bad at all considering his gearing. Wonder if he is a hubber?

Patchelicious Posted January 27, 2014 Share BL was a nightmare. Lots of matches burnt, after every turn the guys would attack and you would burn trying to close the gap again..... and those u16 lighties who started with the us rode so hard for the first 1h30mins only to have most of them drop off with 30km to go. Managed to pull the second group of BL guys in at 2h42. Was a nice race, good marshals, only crappy things was the wind and a lady BL rider in pink Lab kit that nearly caused 10 accidents behind her by serving and braking mid pack, and didnt even notice it.....

bebop Posted January 27, 2014 Share I was in VB, our group split badly after one of the guys crashed around a corner - does any one know who that was and if he's ok, as he was gripping his shoulder and I think it might have been his collarbone. Did a 2:44 - had a puncher and did the last 40km like Celine Dion - all by my self... Condolence to the family that was in that accident on the highway.
