    FF will NOT be pleased. Clearly using too much energy and betraying the dark powers of shadow riding.

    Nah, they all got through that at the front. Puccio even took a look back to make sure everyone made it, presumably to decide if they needed to neutralise if they hadn't.

    Yeah. I tried looking for it but I'm still in the dark. Maybe he is too, with a damp cloth on his head!!


    Great commentator and often the greater the exhibition, the more tattered the man.

    Talent can be a *****.

    It can be found. You might need to spell his name right though, it's Harmon.



    Eye nose that. Got bored looking for something I know nothing of!!

    Debu ..! Hold your horses lad, read the signs properly! Still 50ks to race.

    Edit. Have it on good authority that he was getting the chills from being in the shadows. Just getting the blood flowing.

    Rowe I think or possibly Puccio. Not sure what happened to the rest, they were all on the front then they just disappeared :?

    Wiggins still there, sitting on the rear.
    If he doesn't contribute, I hope G reciprocates, next weekend.

    He's bemused at me at the best of times. He had no idea why I was laughing at him after I took it. :)

    Wiggins was at the back at the top of the Paterburg.

    Got to give credit for playing along.

    You, ATC and the_boy won the "most inapropriate rider in the sweepstakes" comp.
