Not guilty!! Me and Craigy were qiite poorly before the race - I did less than quarter of a lap which was dissapointing as it was a long way to go for nothing.

Looking at the 'Battle at Durango' vid that someone put on here, the course looked pretty epic, completely different to what you'd get in the UK...I'd be happy to have completed a lap let alone 3!!!

Hats off to you dude...oh and to you too Tim...heh heh...urm...

yes it was totally different to the type of courses we had ridden in the uk, but we did go there a week before the race so we knew what we were up against. the first half of the course was all up then the other all down with a kick right near the finnish just as you got back into the village. it was an amazing course. we even saw a bear on it in practice!!
thanks for the head's up on this post.
i'm going to start a new thread soon for everyone to post all their retro race pics as i got loads that i'd like to share with you guys and i think tim's got some too.
