Hardly... The Conquest and Kili Flyer Competion came in above the middle of the range Kili Flyer.
It is very nice though.

I trust you'll be joining us next year Gus. We miss your joie de vivre.

A bit late to the party with this but I've only just dried out

A cracking day again despite the rain. I thought it a harder route than last year but perhaps that was just me.

No ill effect from the human meat burgers at the lunch stop :shock:

Two things I will learn from for next year ....

1) Bring gloves
2) Have a front chainring smaller than 36t :facepalm:

A great day of banter an bikes, love the video of Pete

I'm amazed that during the day no one mentioned I was (again) riding a modern 29er ....... Genuinely aghast that it snuk in passed you all.

Special thanks to Paul and to everyone that held a gate.

looked fun.

Unfortunately it was a free bar, 38C and beach side for me that day.

Will try again next year.

Did anyone Strava or GPS the route for this? Interested in seeing what the route was, as I can't remember now .... and it was before I had any navigation tech of my own.

It was crayons and tracing paper in those days
