Re: 3 Peaks cyclocross. Help!
was touch and go... 4 minutes behind schedule at top of Ingleborough, snapped off front shifter having a bit of a spill on way down so only had small chain-ring from then on, 5 minutes up at top of Whernside, puncture on way down, bang on at top of PYG and then spun my 34X12 as fast as my legs would allow.

I arrived at the stile to see a queue 20m+ long and promptly joined the back of it! I was then joined by a friend of mine with whom i had a chat as we waited at least 5 minutes until we were at the front. He climbed over, I passed him my bike and off i went!
While i was waiting a rider did continue past the whole queue seemingly oblivious to the heckling coming from the queing crowd, I can confirm however that that rider was deffinately not number 44!!:mad:

Someone's got their numbers wrong!
Number 44 was stood next to me,number 48 waiting patiently on the left hand side of the queue.
I had a yellow major jake he had what looks like a red mountain bike with disc brakes.
We were there when the queue jumper did his dastardly deed,he went round the right hand side.
Once more...it wasn't 44! Somebody has definitely got it wrong!

My apologies Gougled, presumably a numeral hiding in front of the orange 44armband of the scallywag in question. I will go and fall off my bike now providing you with some Karmic payback! :o

Apology accepted. Please do not feel you should throw yourself off your bike! I think the karmic balance has been restored!!
