Any special reason why people use a 60cm wide riser?

It turns out risers were much better suited to this course. you need to turn hard into the corners. the people who rode with risers generally did better than people on track drops.

very truee!!! i put track drops on mine. then had a go afterwards when the event had finished. should have riden with risers, much easier

Ah, you wouldn't be Connor, would you?

So they did racing with two people on the track for the comp bits? That would have been better than watching just the time trials for the qualifying alright.

Oh yeah, and my dynamo looked awesome in the video. Glad I left it on.

I wondered who that was. It did look pretty special :-)

That was pretty awesome fun.
Made it just in time, didn't qualify but stayed on my bike. I'd like to have spent more time riding it, seeing Andy killing it in the break made me want one. Forum build anyone?

my thoughts exactly

Who has photos/videos? i need to re live the experience

I got a video of your ride Xander, managed to catch the bit of bad luck you had at the end as well.

Good work, Angus. I wander if anyone's got video of me falling off.

Ah, you wouldn't be Connor, would you?

i'v been rumbled...

Great fun, even if I did slam hard and fuck the axle on my spinergy.
Dont worry, photoben will be along shortly to post up the video

Was standing just where you crashed, at least it was just the axle that went and not the wheel itself. Was a gnarly crash, glad you were OK.

Sorry Xander.

Still a bit unsure how I came away so unscathed. My backs a bit sore but other than that Im fine, could have been a lot worse.
Cant wait to see the video of it!

Where the hell has Ben got to? I keep finding new buises and it feels like I've got whiplash.
