That's is one of the most classic and challenging races in the calendar. Cracking end to the season and usually Joss is pottering around the show ground.
Oh, that race is only second to the Ben for hammering the quads.

Watched the Embsay race and Jimmy had to work hard for the win. Should be good to watch at Wasdale. Couldn't believe he took Ted on the descent!
I can, Embsay is a long XC descent, not Ted's home ground.
This is how i think it might go assuming nobody else bags the win- Ted is going to have to hang onto Jimmy up to the turn, i reckon Jimmy might get there first. Ted is going to have to take Jimmy on the scree and maintain the gap all the way down the grass, i think it'll be won or lost in the last 1000'.

Ted ftw
Poacher turned game-keeper
Tough call but Jimmy is absolutely flying at the minute. If it comes down to pure speed over the last few hundred metres Jimmy will win. If Ted can get a gap he might well hold on for victory.
More exciting than soccerball for sure!
Never been to Muker what's the descent like there gents? It's going to be a quality finish whatever happens.

when does the 2016 calendar come out online?
After the AGM which is on 14 Feb.
No rush yet, Sedbergh Gala will be the first race and that's not until Mid May.
I need to get fit first.
