2009-08-28 Fri - Hackney Wick Drag Sprints: Second Edition

Yay! I wasn't last!

Of course not. fruitbat and I were there. The bastard beat me to DFL.

ohhh, someone is fallen of the list it seems and their is not even any picture proof i raced. in that case i claim the **A 20:69 right behind Clive. but be warned all you sprint talents: the forum track day will hurt big times, **stupid breakaways to chase down.

Apologise for those I've needed prodding to put times up - a case of reading someone else's handiwork that was written in the dark

Claus, I have a time of 19:56, you sure the time above is correct?

Of course not. fruitbat and I were there. The bastard beat me to DFL.

Only because my first run wasn't timed, the stopwatch didn't work.

Gustav no worries, just wanted to have a moment of drama.
As said earlier, great event! well done everyone.

...can I just have green laser-beams please?

Gustav, it looks as though Rik's qualifying time is also missing, which sadly pushed me down from 14th to 15th. Still gives me the vets category!

I love that pic Spins. It really captures the pain we must go through for a small amount of enjoyment.

Was that the winner?

Nope, thats Ma3k, he came second to Conservative Values.

Yeah my qualifying time is missing. It was 18.44.
Cheers again Gus. Top night.
Well impressed with the little video using that Flip thing too.

Wow, so Ric is a member of the forum!

£11 donated to Sustrans thanks to spoke card donations

Next time have a 50p entry fee as well, nobody would mind paying that and another 50p for spoke cards.

I think that's fair, but it would have to be advertised as a charity event. Depends what you want it to be.

I think it might be time for another drag run soon. Another on in the new year? Maybe mid-to-late January?

Sounds like a good idea.

i concur

Definitely! Count me in.

I'm in

Better get training now, don't think I can endure the embarrassment of being beaten by a lawyer twice in a row...

There is no humiliation being beaten by a lawyer.

The humiliation lies in being beaten by an old fat and unfit lawyer.

I like to think of cliveo as a sleeper lawyer.

I can't be bothered to search - hillbilly: what gearing did you end up going with (might as well ask an expert, init)?
