You could also extend his strange thought process to almost every accident whether sporting or otherwise. No one wants an accident to happen so how can it be self inflicted? What a numpty.

I'd imagine that Mike also thinks that all cyclists should pay road tax, etc, etc, etc.....

Hi Andy

Any pics of the leading group I was number 50 in 4th I think. Always like looking at shots on that part of descent your pics seem to make it look even more epic

Cheers Tim

A pair of red prescription glasses were found on the race field on Saturday.

Spread the word :)

Just catching up with all this. Top man Wharfee for getting in quickly and doing the first aid :cool: I hope the lad is ok and doesn't remember any of it.

Well done Andy helping the poor guy out..hope you're feeling ok.

Think I was number 213 would have been going down where you were about 1.05pm.

Seconded.

Hi Andy,
Great work helping the poor guy out on Saturday, sounds like he's been very lucky and lucky you were there in those conditions, hopefully he is well on the mend! I wondered who was taking pictures getting pelted by loose scree!
Anyway back to me, ha...If you've got a snap of 306,40/50th , could have had a blue cag on, but number 189 yellow vest came flying past (and many others) whilst we were near you.
Cheers in advance Rick.

Thirded (if there is such a thing?).

I will try and sort the requested pics as soon as I get a chance.

Thanks for all the kind words, aren't fell runners just a fantastic bunch of people.

Latest about the injured runner; broken breast bone and collar bone.
