Does that mean you were just racing with a broken collarbone?Ha just seen this. Cheers guys. Well, the collarbone was mostly fixed by then I reckon, but yeah it was my first ride back on the bike. Got a jersey to go with the title, so you can slap me and tell me off for being a bighead if you see me wearing it ;)

That guy with the Bontrager keeps asking after you and was rather cross when I mentioned you raced not long after getting back on the bike...
I still think you have a fan. -

clarion beat me to it--forumengers Charlotte and kat won the Knutsford Great Race Team Prize. kat tells me that there was some controversy surrounding the finish before they were confirmed as winners, and the BBC still has the incorrect information about the winners.
There's a link to the correct results on this page:
http://www.theknutsfordgreatrace.co.uk/
Charlotte and kat beat the next-placed team by a whopping nine laps. The other teams were blokes, all sixteen of them. One other woman, as an individual rider, if I recall correctly.
The individual winner, Jim Brailsford (any relation to Dave?) recorded 107 laps.
kat says that this was a 700-metre circuit with three tight turns. The race format was a distance trial by time; i.e., riders were fitted with a timing chip and were ranked by the distance (number of laps) that they did in three hours.
Well done, both!

Oh, and what's quite cool in the results spreadsheet, in a nerdy way, is that you can see every single lap time that was recorded.

Norton Wheelers have put together the first ever women's team (four of them) for the 3 Peaks Cyclocross. I'll have some pictures up after the event.
Special mention though to Carolyn Speirs of Horwich Cycles, who is the only entrant in the Women 50+ category. This is Carolyn's third time of riding in the F50+ category and she keeps getting faster each time. There is no such thing as too old to race.

'Boggled down'? Does she mean 'bogged down'?

Way to go for Martina. Just trying to imitate Christa Rothenburger, Sheila Young (Connie's mum), Ingrid Haringa, Clara Hughes, Beth Heiden, ...
BTW, Marianne Vos is also an excellent MTB rider, ice skater, inline skater and runner, besides being an A-student at her university and having grabbed titles on road, CX and track bikes.
