Good Evening All

Are any of you hardened commuters taking part in this little dash?

It's only œ15 to enter which seems reasonable considering Rapha are linked to it! [:)]

  • Yes hackers. The last time I was in a race with a Le Mans style start (or a race of any description) was the first Grundig Mountain Bike World Cup about 18 years ago. The British leg was in Crystal Palace Park if this jogs anyones memory. This race seemed quite fun and I have an old suit to rip to shreds in the battle to the first corner!

    Fancy a race? :-)

    We'll probably come 39th and 40th but at least the pub will be fun afterwards! [:)]
