Also in the non retro camp :-( a few token retro parts.

Did however realise that the race is just two weeks short of being 18 years to the day that I did my first ever mountain bike race, also at this venue, thats got to be of some retro value? :?

Hope this goes better than that one, went the wrong way and ended up dead last (Probably would have been last anyway) and vowed never to race again.

I'll be riding my 94 Zaskar so pretty much Retro for me

May not be riding anything though as i cant access a friggin daft No Fuss E-mail, let alone print it off :x

No Fuss ?, quite a bit here, sureley proof of i.d etc would be enough on the day :?

I have raced a fair number of no fuss events and have never printed the info out and never been asked for it, sure would be ok if you don't have it.
