Couldn't agree more DT. Been to a few cycle events this year including Tour of Flanders, Paris Roubaix and T de F, but I reckon that was the best!!

I was running late as I had the little man in tow but we got to cold coates just before jebby came through n watched 1st 30 odd through, then we went to ribble head to watch jebby through with his support paul for his road bike swap then quickly off to Horton, p y g track just missed rob going through but got most of the leaders n watched em back down again top day out.
O n met Alister Brownlee watching :D
Interesting point about Alistair Brownlee. We saw him walking the route last weekend with a group of pals
5:01 for me - pleased to get so close to 5 hours. Had 3 self imposed mechanicals on road sections, changing into big-ring - big-ring 3 times, each time necessitated taking off back wheel to extricate myself - what a doof!
We had a small group from our club out supporting and we really enjoyed it. Ran up to Ingleborough just in time to see Jebby, cheered on as many as we could, and then headed over to PYG to just catch him again coming back. Blown away by how fast the leading riders descend down that track...!
Never given CX a go but having been 'in a state' plenty of times near the end of a fell race, you really get a boost from spectator and marshall support. So it felt really good to cheer on the riders up the last peak and hand out sweets. There were more than a fair few that looked like they needed it on that last climb!
Huge well done to all that took part. Impressive stuff.
Managed to get quite a nice panoramic shot from Ingleborough: https://flic.kr/p/prNYUg
That is a great pic there Graham! :)

Just a quick question. I believe you are required to do 'qualifying races for this. Anyone know what they may be?
