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.

Wadenhoe run-bike-run Round 2

By Glynn:
It was great to see so many make the effort to come over & watch today, so the least I can do is a quick report of what turned out to be a race just as expected!

Arriving this morn we were told that the Kyack was off so there would be a bigger run/bike field and they would not let us run the first 100yds by the river as it was too dangerous! This turned out to be not a bad course as u still got some deep water sections to run through.

Checking the rusults from the laps I did on the first race I figured I was about 6th on the first run, so with a quiet confidence for a good start I lined up on the front row and on the gun I went...backwards. I dont know wether it was just that there were more people but I had about 15-20 in front of me by the style & this meant a massive hold up to start things off,as I watched Patric creep off in to the distance.

I persisted to go as fast as I could for a bit, then remind myself to slow down or I would not make the distance, on the second run lap this was not an issue as my back was not allowing me to push hard on the run anymore! I did however finish the run jus

t to see Patrick going down the first slope on the bike.

So a good changeover & on the bike ...settle into a rythem I thought and soak everyone up! Hah, this has to be the toughest bike we have had there, the bottom of the valeys were so water logged u could not carry any speed to assist getting up the other side, which of course we were now going through more times with the new extended course.

I dug in as hard as I could and every rider in front became my new target,I could see

Patrick in his non descreet top from the off and was determined to at least close the gap over the course of the race. I caught Steve on lap 4 without even realising it was him and continued my chase, eventually jostling with patrick for most of lap 5. Patrick spent most of this lap "annoyingly" talking to me, telling me how he would take it easy on the bike to save something for the run, mmm if he, in that case had pushed hard on the bike he would of won by a mile!

Lap 6 I managed to pull a slight gap & was the first bike back in the changeover (wahoo in the lead for at least 5 secs), but had 3 guys out of the changeover before me due to a shoelace incident! Still in front of Steve though I leapt to my feet and got as far as the road before realising that my legs were refusing to perform the motion of running, I had exploded my legs big time and by half way round the first lap was wondering if I could finish, but persist I did as people crawled past me leaving me a reasonable finish, but not as good as it could of been.

With aprox one run a month for the last 6months this was enevitable though so I cant say I am suprised,and everything hurts like hell now unsuprisingly too.....so how long to the next one...9 weeks isnt it? RESULTS HERE , Glynn seems to be down As Glyn Proctor!
