  winston Massive respect for those that completed the Dynamo in those conditions....much joviality was had at Rollapaluza along the lines of "thank gow we're not riding to Dunwich" as we watched it tip down outside.....hoho

  Well done you guys, anyone have warm enough fingers to take pictures?

  I'll try and get smaller clips up on youtube soon.
  I didn't film the middle section of the ride out of respect for the ride and riders. I didn’t want to belittle the effort and achievement by making a tacky, crappy video - no one wants to see anyone jack it in at 4am or hear me drifting off into another less wet dimension before sun rise.

  Favourite part – after getting lost in a group of six (actually rode into a farm yard) just after sunrise and finally getting back on the right road (confirmed by seeing bikes ahead and behind.

  Worst part – getting going again after feeding station at 2:30. Teeth were chattering for first couple of miles.

  Will I be there on 19th July 2008 - YES!
