how long does a race last? Is it worth going down in a viewing capacity?

The race should last about an hour, but it depends on how quick you are;)
The race is a long as you are quick.
A good map of the CC is essential btw.
Tiny you have to race this time, you bailed out on me last time, if you races maybe I could have gotton 9th instead of 8th... ;p

that was a class alleycat the cluedo theme was really well done, although my bike needs a stern talking to for thrice ****ing me over. cage on the good breaking side snapped then threatened to get caught in the chain, rear light bracket came loose on cobbles and slipped down rear light fell off and went under the wheels of a car, then rubbed on my wheel slowing me down took ages to realise what was going on then it was red hot when i tried to remove it, will try harder next time,

Saw a few alleycat-ters on may from the bull and castle to baggot street. I spotted a silver Bianchi and was that you Neill in an orange t-shirt?

Oh, i flipped my rear wheel around today and put it on fixed, took a spin around the estate and I really don't like the feeling. I think I am "freewheel for life" :rolleyes:

the fitness level thing is not as important as your ability to not get killed so you'll be fine

Grand so! I just have to source a front brake lever for my oversized drops and I'll be there!

Had a few close calls recently, unable to resist the urge to ride before finding one.. Doesn't help that I've geared upto 80GI's too!
