I just about missed that crash myself - squeaky bum time! Thanks NLTCBMBC for a wicked day, I've fancied a fixed crit ever since watching RHC London last year. So much to learn - positioning, cornering and going out hard. Got caught out on all 3 in the heat but a marked improvement in the B final! The racing was much safer than I expected, naturally the lower placings in the heats and the B final is a lot less competitive so maybe the safety decreases as you get quicker?!
A UK series akin to the NL crit series would be fantastic but very logistical I guess. Could be a decent money spinner though. We have minimal options to race at home and I'd love to do more
