    Ha! Well one more go at the B podium so...

    My Average speed was 21.6km/h
    Yours was 22.1km/h

    The difference between mid 20's and 8th eh? :D

    Small margins :-) Even trying to close a 3 meter gap seems to take an age.

    Great craic, first proper CX race for me (upgraded to a proper bike during the week from the big heap of a MTB I had in Rathfarnham). Punctured on the second lap at the kerb near the sign-on area. Got back on after a very kind chap fixed the puncture for me. I'll be back for more! (and learn to bunny hop in the meantime :D )

    Ha! l'd say Tymon is most likely, though as yesterday one of the race organizers explained about the reason for not posting all the venues...

    Very fast race yesterday. The bikes covered in dust afterwards. Not one single puddle or muddy patch on the whole course. Long live summer.

    I forgot to slow down hitting the boards on one of the laps and poor little leggies had to go like Wile Coyote for a few strides on the dismount. Maybe I should hit them at that speed every lap!

    Wasn't so hilarious for him, that crash cost a couple of hundred quid in bike repairs. I ran it, wasn't brave enough.
