Cyclocross - CX and SSCX races and training

Thanks - ended up buying some on the way home

They should be charging you VAT for orders under £135, above is left up to customs

Yes, that's what I meant. Below £135 is included in what you see in your cart

Thanks, that's my supplier of cheapish specialized terra tubs. Although they seem to have miss listed them

As you were then 🫡

Missed the Wets is the on order legit??

There were no 33s in stock yesterday either.. Was considering some 31s

Yep - will also try and pick up some Leicestershire league races after Christmas as the WMCCL finishes pretty early and Misterton Hall is an ace venue.

If it works around Christmas logistics, look at doing the Boxing Day CX in Kenilworth near Coventry - it is amazing.

Well... Last night was my first time back racing since being involved in a very nasty accident at the beginning of the year. I can't say I was particularly competitive, but I did really enjoy being back pedalling through the dry corners, running up big bob and getting my heart up to 207bpm.

Pleased to find my remounts haven't got any worse, either 😆

What a massive field in the seniors + women's race 😱

Well done, Stuart. Great to see you back racing.

I had to bail just before the sighting lap as our stupid dog had eaten a corn on the cob husk, which had a sharp plastic skewer embedded in it, and I had to take him to the emergency vets.

Have your remounts got better?

(Good to see you’re back racing!)

Big fields but fewer supporters than last week maybe.
I did wonder where you were @andyp hope the dog is ok!

Didn’t spot @owl but did spot @fredtc

Congrats on the series win @fredtc

Blimey. Hope it's ok now 🤞

He's been operated on, and is still at the vets racking up the bill. Should be home this evening or tomorrow morning.

Thanks for putting the vet’s kids through college, doggo.

The vet looked too young to have kids.

O hai

And thanks. Always wanted an engraved glass

Nice one @fredtc and first class lapping etiquette as well.

Course was really fun, even if I did manage to buckaroo myself over the handlebars on the man made hump thing opposite the pavilion.

Shame it was running so late, seemed to me from the results times that the 'Main Event' riders definitely lost a lap as a result. Plus setting the women off in the wrong direction...

Class series once again. I wussed out of round 2 but otherwise comfortably far away from troubling the top step and enjoying battling the same faces around corners as the weeks went on. Atmosphere is top notch and nice to have the photogs there to capture the gurns. Wasn't the weather we had last year, but definitely prefer 20 degrees to 40 I guess.

Sending the women down Bob was an inspired move and hope it feeds into course design next year!

I found a lost MET helmet at the pub in Dulwich after last night, gimme a shout if you know anyone looking for theirs.

Not broken 🎉🎉🎉

That’s good news. How is the recovery going?

Yeah ok, need to ween off the splint which is good as could do with a wash lol. Not sure about taking the bike on holiday next week. Was supposed to be doing more of the 100 climbs…
How’s the doggo?
