Magic.

This is magic.

OH god. Delete that. I'll have Mrs Brave complaining she looks fat..

My first visit to this event and very impressed I was too. Great photos everyone.
I don't know if this has been linked to on this thread but there's a handlebar video of the climb on this page

Rode with you guys for a while just after Polhill on the way out. I was parlezing with Mme noisy brakes.

^ HA! She was well annoyed with her squeaky brakes. Now sorted

Here's how it's done in t'North...

I fucking hate the middle section of the Rake. It's way too easy. Spoils your rhythm (if riding fixed).

More magic.

OH god. Delete that. I'll have Mrs Brave complaining she looks fat..

so you think your wife is a bit of a porker?
have you told her what you think?

No.. She's a waif... She thinks she thinks she's fat is all.

Right, last pic' honest, a bit soft but there you go.

Wish I ridden it now!

Greta pics though thisview. gratefully passed on to club mates (JAMIE is on here but ^ T Bone Cannons Allen isn't)

Brave,
Thats fine, thanks for appreciating them.
P.S. I think I'm out of the nursery now!

nice dappling sunlight in the background as well.. Yorks is great for that effect.

Mmm. Cake.

No, to get there on time from north would have involved getting up at stupid o'clock and I had a cold. Did want to go though. Went out into 'Little Switzerland' in Hertfordshire and went up lots of hills instead - with hindsight not a good idea as it made the cold nastier =(

Yeah, I thought I saw you - then confirmed when I spotted your Neil Orrell locked up on my way out; I was only there fairy fleetingly, to get some cake before heading home. Did you make it to the hill climb in the end?

should have worn the zebra go faster shorts illy, might have helped.

Great effort mind.
