Thanks Joe. Were on the downhill left hand corner just after the finish line?
I did okay given my warm up consisted of standing in a queue for 30 minutes waiting to sign on.
Will do a fuller report later but thanks for all the shouts of encouragement from @Doctor_Cake, @Ramsaye (or whatever he's called these days) and anyone else who shouted encouragement.
It was also nice to finally meet @bothwell, albeit for about a minute before I had to dash off to the start. Thanks to your friend for doing an excellent job of pinning my number on.

Yah - terrible start, then rear-ended on the hurdles resulted in jammed 39/11 gearing - not going to get too far on that. Grabbed the wife's bike which was surprisingly good, massive thanks to the impromptu pit crew effort of @mands, @hairnetnic and @Doctor_Cake who then got the Talbot going again.
Finished well down but had a great time nevertheless.

Finished the day with a ghetto picknick at euston station stuffing my face with Thai Roti with the lfgss crew. Overall for the day: 9/10, would bang etc.
Howard swapped out bikes midway through the race from what I could see.
Shook my bell for @andyp
