Bristol bikefest
Second event of the year Bristolbikefest, this one is a new one to the racing calendar but quite local so no excuses for not taking part, held at Ashton Court just off the M5 junction 19. Aim and Dave arrived a few moments before and discovered that the caravan wouldn't fit in the allocated space, so we camped near other caravans in the parking area, we later discovered that this was a much better pitch. Possibly also much safer, as we learnt that a dozen or so bikes were stolen late Saturday early Sunday morning from the main camping area.
The course was fairly flat with a couple of short climbs and short rocky descents, the majority running through wooded areas rooty, rocky and fast, resulting in an average lap time of 32m 14s. Half way round the course was a large bridge construction with steep access and exit routes, many riders suffered with pinch flats when exiting the ramp, luckily my tubeless se-tup held tight and fast. First impressions of the course were not favourable, I did find the first lap a bit dull, but the lack of climbing and fast wooded sections soon became more appealing as the day went on. The team managed 5 laps each, with Dave doing an extra lap, which ended up being the final lap, unfortunately John suffered 2 punctures and was forced to retire.
Wheelie wyre weridos was in 23rd position most of the day but finally finishing in position 32 out of 42.

Long Mynd
Long Mynd route

Great sunday cycling over the Long Mynd, slightly different route than last time, still alittle exploring left to do! Lots of climbing followed by some good descents.

SSEC 2010

Took part in my first singlespeed event over the weekend, great atmosphere and a great crowd! I was worried that I would struggle and make a tit of myself but held my own quite well, completing two laps in the sweltering heat! The course was mostly the same as the forest of dean enduro race last year, and I was happy I had ridden most of it before. After completing my first lap I was surprised and very grateful to stop for beer and flapjacks :) Even thinking about taking part in SSUK and would love to head out to Belgium for next years event!

Big respect to Sheldon and the Knights of Niche for organising the event, the cheese board was the biggest I have ever seen and had the delights of sampling! Now all i need to do is locate and save up for a super attention whore frame ;)
