Essential kit is whistle and survival bag (orange polythene, BMC approved). Waterproof is organisers discretion on race day.
@wharfeegoo Good video. :)
Richpips, your photo's are awesome! Great to see a photographer going to different places around the course and taking different angles :D
Wharfeego's video is very good but have you seen this one, its on the BCF website and uses a headcam.

Beat me to it, just watched that and was in the process of posting it, it's a good un:wink:Quote:

Almost makes me want to enter next year!!!!
Almost...
Well, what is stopping you? You recced it, you got a brandnew bike for it, you supported a rider twice, if you can't do it, no-one can... :D
Holdon, no, on hindsight, don't! Who else is going to do my support if you are riding next year? ;)
Can't tell from that pic, but 'Cycling Weekly' insinuates (in this mornings issue) that it's a previous winner of the event?!?!Quote:

Three Peaks Cyclocross 2011.
Just a reminder that entries are online from Friday 1st July.
Here
Just entered online. Much easier this year on Si entries page, on the the waiting list, fingers crossed:thumbup:
I seem to be on that waiting list as well, all of a sudden, even though I have a dodgy shoulder and it isn't certain what's wrong with it... In the hope that it will be sorted, done and dusted come September :)
In the meantime, I best practice shouldering the bike to the left :w00t: just in case...:closed:
ooops for got to enter.....too late now iguess theres always next year ...ho hum! ;)Quote:

Mind, already almost 400 entries when I registered... so clearly a popular race. Best race I have ever done, between fell running and bike racing, so well worth it even if it is just the once :)
I've registered as well. With negligible experience I don't hold out much hope of getting an entry.
I'll be gutted if I don't get in. The only race I really care about.
Im on the waiting list too , We need more races like this ,But little less road though :wink:
This might be of interest
