  • Apparently the Houndslow & District 100 was abandoned today when a drink driver flipped his car and almost hit a rider.

  • "Weather turned out to be reasonable. Still, mild & dry.

    I passed an overturned car at about 2 Miles and guessed the event would be called off. By the time I got back there at 9 Miles they had stopped the race. Driver was pissed and had lost control.

    No riders injured. Need to juggle my calendar......again."

    I don't mind that. I'm not in favour of dog racing, even if they're taking it easy. But what about clubman's event?

  • Yes, that's right.
    I'd already DNS'd on account of having to look after sick baby.
    Was a bit miffed on our 5 am walk when I saw it was a beautiful morning with thunder storm having passed earlier than forecast, but when I heard the news was pleased I hadn't bothered to trek down.
    Apparently he was drunk and driving whilst DQ d at 100 mph and tried to overtake someone else on the inside, hit a kerb and flipped.
