Half Tour of Pendle 2010

[alfa_scud]

Bloody hell that was close! And we didn't even speak, probably cos we was too buggered!

[Al Fowler]

Great results Al & Hursty! Gonna be interesting watching you two battle it out this season!

I know, a little too close for comfort. Guna have to get some extra training.....3 times a day, as well as eating spinach on brown bread at 3am each morning.

Well i took a shocking line off geronimo. Not to self...dont stick to the left next time, follow Ian Greenwood's line instead.

I was pretty chuffed that i managed to run all of the first climb to the top, felt pretty ill getting to the nick of pendle and going past the resevoir but felt abit better as the race went on.
The 2nd climb is a total beast, i probably could have run it but i decided i'd follow everyone around me and walked it.

Ian Holmes was certainly on a mission!!!!!


Cracking route, a little too hot at times and as ady said, that icy stuff after CP1 was abit of a pain, other than that cracking race.

Well done Al, good result mate........but shouldn't you be tapering for Coniston ( I am )
