Good to see someone entered John Brown, Salford. He's only been away for two months of is six month cycle ride. He did it bloody quick if hes back already!!!
Hope you have a good 'un tomorrow Roadie. You had a stormer there last year.
I'll be looking for you on the TV to provide me with the stimulus and motivation to go on and have a decent 'trudge' around the mud in the Clough myself.

Have a great run RR will watch the race after getting back from trudging round the Clough
Is that last years entry list you have there?
My missus reckons that Brendan Foster was extremely dismissive and disparaging about the British lads chances in the longer race.
Apparently he mentioned Andi as a possible outsider to have a decent run and that was it. Seemingly there was absolutely no camera footage of any of the British lads during the race.

I did spot Andi and Jason several times. Andi seemed to be giving it a real go whereas Jason held back a bit. Jason must have finished well as he was just behind Thomas Abyu who was first Brit with Andi a bit further back.
Results.
I am back. I thought I was going to die on yesterdays flight as we approached Edinburgh Bloody windy describes it!
Race was tough going, very windy and even had some md. Started well, but just really getting back in to tip top shape. Looking forward to a good Northern XC now.
On a plus side, Foster must know me now!!!!!!
