Second is damn good. Bear in mind this guy is not human :shock:

Looking through the times was quite interesting, couple of Bikin Motion riders (shop owned by an old team mate), good friend raced in this with his brother which I didn't know, and several of the local Cov riders there too.

Makes me want to race again seeing this..

Great work John in signing up Geoff - he definately needs a suitable retro steed. Maybe he can ride on of Jez's? Actually no - he needs a bike that used to going fast!

PS - can we enter races under the name Retrobike?
