Eastern XC 2010 Round 1 - Tunstall
What have these guys done to offend the weather gods! Two Winter series races and two Summer events in Two years and all four off them run in a continuous heavy downpour. The mix of continuous sand slop and the long distances just destroys bikes.
Mental race start, 100+ riders into un rideable singletrack afer about 30 seconds, and everyone set off together no mater whta the ability meant a race where you didn't have a clue who you were racing against.
Jack kept it consistent and just plugged on with Russel Rout in close attendance, struggling with a self changing faulty shifter. On the last lap after a crap bottle hand over made up 3 places to grab 3rd on the line in a sprint, Podium result.
7 Laps in 2Hr35:16 3rd place 10 mins behind winner John McAndrew and 5 behind second Andrew Manning,

Quattro Sportive
Local one for us, Jack, Rich and Dave rode to and did the 82 miler with Bob, only splitting up for the last bit, can't stop us trying to murder each other. A very windy cold ride around four counties starting from Woolaston school. Worth looking out for next year.
Our ride time without the two food stops was 4:55:00, as usual with Sportives some of the times are obviously those who have done one of the shorter routes, I'd guess 4:30 was the fast time.
Rich 5:07:21
Jack 5:07:33
Bob 5:07:55
Dave 5:09:05
Steve, Roz, Lou and Brownie did the shorter route, 48 miles. The boys gave the girls a 5 minute head start and didn't catch them...nice one.
Roz 3:27:59
Louise 3:27:58
Steve and Brownie 3:25:32
