    I've got to hand it to SheffRec for putting on road races. You don't have a map/description of the course do you ?

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

      I was there. You would have known me as the guy that got passed by all 3 groups.

      Great race - but the climbs were simply too much for me. Legs still hurting today!

      What colours were you in Pokerface??

      Was a great circuit, well organised, and great weather! Got thru 2 big bottles, bit painful in scratch group at times, but once it became clear after 3 strongest riders had gone up the road that we were catching f**k all, it settled into a nice ride :)

      Used to it - although it was particularly warm on Sunday. Wish I had opted to carry more than one bottle!
    • Thanks guys. Sunday was fantastic, the wind didnt help though. The back of the circuit looked a hard slog from the car!!!

      Well done to everyone who rode and supported the event. We are now looking to build on this and are having a meeting next week to plan for next year.

      Thought that the HQ was awesome, free cake, what more do you want!!!


      Full results coming soon.
