I was a bit worried that I might have overegged the praise for this event, but I genuinely think it was a great effort to get overcome all the difficulties of RR promotion and effectively create what may well be the best National B event from scratch in less than a year.
The attached pic. is Harry Evans's ( the runner up) chain ring. Of course I'm a dinosaur who knows nothing about modern kit, but this looked really weird to me. Still, he did come pretty close to winning.
Although as I say I'm not up to speed, I did know that 'Thetic' chainrings (same basic idea) made their first appearance in the 189o's.
