Oh wow, that does look good... in a sadomasochistic kind of way... Think I have an art fair that week though, always a problem getting time off work for racing, especially when they are far enough away to have to take 4 days off
I am going to experiment with the inner tube tonight, could well be genius! I have tried shouldering the bike on the other side, but it just doesn't work. For Simon's Fell I put it accross my upper back/shoulders though, so that should be ok.
