Thanks a million for such a well organised event, Next year please God we will bring quiet a few more up with us from Waterford. The 7 of us who travelled up had such a good day on what can only be described as a perfect route for an end of year sportif.

hi Doc man


ur right, on the rare occasion i turned around to see the peloton, the picture looked quite good. so will have to figure a way of filming looking backwards for next year,. the sunny weather was agret help.

the conversations are funny!! amazing what u forget !


there are at least 2 more to go up,, takes ages to upload. these are one in the yard at the start and the first few miles.


the original HD video is available to the organisers and anyone else who wants it. big files though, about 5 gb of data in total.

I'm that Waterford mouthpiece asking you what i look like from behind early on in video 3. I was amazed at the speed we appeared to be travelling at and i was well impressed until you spoiled it and said that the wide angle lens makes it look as though you are travelling faster than you actually are.
Is this the latest must have cycling gismo?. To hell with the Garmin 800 from Santa. How about a HD video cam for the helmet instead.

hi Muckers:

that made me laugh, yeah I am afraid that it does look faster, tis ok showing ur mates once u dont tell them that little fact . It certainly does appear faster !!!

Well now u can see for urself what u look like from behind , no comment necessary !!!!!!

but u can always blame the wide angle... !!!!!!!


I have a garmin 705 and I would buy a garmin before one of these !!! they are about 300 dolars plus shipping and tax about 70.

Ye thats me alright. Feckin wide angle does me no favours. Strict diet from here on in im afraid. Leave that yoke at home in future.

Captain Havoc

Feel like a gravedigger bringing this back up but the Deenside Wheelers (our brand new local rivals ) have the photos from the Comer cycle back in October on their facebook page.

Here's a couple of boards jersey snaps.


I know there's a few more of ye in there but I'll leave that up to yourselves to identify yourselves.

Hey, nice one Captain H

First one - Me and my young lad

second one - just me

Third one looks like a certain cycling forum mod, who shall remain nameless (get your hands back on the bars !!)

Fourth & fifth - Well, met the chap but at my age I can be forgiven for forgetting boards user names !

Super Freak

No photo of me :mad: and it was my first Sportive and my first 100K:pac:

michael196

but superfreak features in one of the videos ? taking a photo at the start in the yard ?

Super Freak

Yeah that's me at the start video.
