- Kevs 'still lives with his mom' comment at the start line from the commentator. class.

I'm still confused as to what he meant by that? :?
 
Great to see so many Retro Bikers there, all racing on their Retro bikes.
The stand had some sweet bikes on it too.

Some memorable moments were:

The rain :(
The wind :(
The mud :evil:

Well done to Ed for riding his SS whilst recovering from Typhoid!!

Shouting encouragement to riders from the Heckel tent at night in the pouring rain. Eye of the Tiger....

The huge pile of broken gazebos in the bin.

Beer on the Kenda climb watching the last lap in the sun.

Well done to everyone who rode, especially at night in the rain.

And get well soon Heathy!
 
Sounds like a good weekend lads (and ladies :) ) - sorry i couldn't be there to help out/race this year.

But what is worrying are the Heathy comments :shock: - what happened?
Surely lightning can't strike twice for Retrobike - Jimmy last year Heathy this year?????
 
Absolutley brilliant weekend, thanks to everyone for making me welcome,

TyphEd's motivational talk will stay with me for a long time ....

"Remember, pain is only temporary, cowardice lasts forever"

I have loads of photos to upload, here are a few to start off.... if anyone want a full res photo just pm me.

Good week end .

Course was excellent in the dry , realy enjoyed it .
Different story in the wet ( wait and see pic of my bike after my night lap :lol: ) .

You survived your night lap then :lol:

Well Done everyone, but whats happened to Heathy ?
 
yes just about . were you there ?

sorry but I am bad with names . same with Johnny66 , I dont remember seeing him but it might have been on the stand .

Heathy had a big off before the end of the first loop on a very fast descent . He hurt his shoulder badly and had to retire .
 
Hmmm, hope he is OK.

As a certified MTB DH coward, I would have to think twice about MM'ing using my proposed retro ride with cantis - I love my discs for 'serious' riding.

Just checking the lights didn't fail at a critical moment ! Couldn't be there unfortunately. :roll:
