No he did not - ungrateful git. He was too busy poncing about with his mate fraser (perhaps you might know him?) "We spent the race holding hands" a direct quote from Brett in the pub or was it Fraser, they are interchangeable.
One of my worst performances ever, nearly as bad a last week when i dropped out of a cyclocross race after one lap! But at least I finished, after a fashion, spending most of the race in the company a charming young lady runner instead of sweaty Brett which was infinitly more prefrable. I only just beat her mind, and thats only cos I hit her with my bike, (the rock missed).
Enjoyed that. Good to have the flu out of my system, only got the chest infection left to shift now..
Who else is moving west along the canal for tomorrow's race at Silsden? I'm sure I'm not the only idiot doing both events, even if Dom is pretending to be sensible.
The Wave Harriers, which at 3.00pm looked like something you'd give a very lucky pig by way of a treat, will be dripping for a couple of days, so it's Walshes tomorrow for me despite the tow path sections.

brrrrr it was so cold
good turn out,i believe best yet

am i right in saying rob bet the record for bike by 2 mins

He was certainly a couple of minutes clear of his nearest challenger beginning the descent from Dobrudden (I know, because I was still wheezing my way up the hill! )
After that, there wasn't another cyclist in sight, and I saw at least 12 runners heading back down to the Glen. Did harriers win overall, or were the cyclists able to make up enough ground on the descent? I suspect that would have been asking too much, given the conditions; but that makes Rob's ride all the more impressive.

runners won the cyclists,well we are superior beings after all,
the first lady had a great run
i believe she was from buxton
No just one to take the easy way out like brett and the boys, all of whom have access to cyclo cross bikes (except Fraser, who I think has has a bike walking arrangement with Millipede she owns it but he takes it out for her) but are too frightened to use them.
Off to Brizzel for work till mon evening enjoy Rivock all.
