Pics look great. Sorry to have missed it.

It looks like Norths still rules.

Anyone else in the "slower than last year club?"

Yes. At least you have smoking as an excuse... need to do more riding...

Who has the video of us singing happy birthday?

Awesome night people. Cheers for coming along. I will post the times up later.

Well that was fun, barely functioning today tho, actually glad that Big Red didn't stay open till 2, could have got really messy.

^what he said. Man I am slow today...

Well done people, thanks a lot for giving this stupid TT a go. You all deserved your beers after.

are we forgetting my 4 minute clipping in

Don't forget the "loose lockring".

So it wasn't the glare from the white Sidis distracting him then?

Sorry, Leo did it in 3.41.5 as he spent exactly 4 minutes clipping in at the bottom of the hill.

Surely not with his choice of attire

My lungs are still destroyed. Note to self, stop smoking.

Epic night out, top turn out. Anyone else in the "slower than last year club?"

Well done PGM

Yep Im in that club but my reason was getting stuck behind the car going down west hill
Yep I know I could have done the pavement but i reckon I could have shaved at least 2 minutes off my time :)
Also quite glad I didnt vomit after as I had consumed a few beers before hand
Great night all !

That was a good night. Can't believe I didn't die on the TT, noone warned me how sharp the turn at the bottom of the hill is.
I also managed to get lost going home, made it further than you though bluequinn. Ended up in hackney after trying to take a shortcut.

Chapeau Gentlemen!

Pinkflaps, you have got a lot faster!

See you all in a month when I'll be fat, slow and vulnerable....

;)
