I missed it all while doing the solo but could hear it most of the way up the climbs on the first half of the lap. It was great! It took my mind off how much i hated those hills for a little while.Big fan of the live music, created a more festival like atmosphere.
charli wouldnt listen to me either wen i sent her to the hospital..She is one tough nut. I was talking to her after race finish and she was saying how she told the ambo's that there was no way she was leaving until you finished the race. Did the close the wound or had she left it too long?
Another suggestion maybe would be to distribute the cash prize pool to not just the winner of the elite category, but maybe top 3 or 5. Coz unless you had an actual chance of winning elite, why would you want to fork out an extra $40 or whatever on top of the entry fee to race?I reckon they will have to stop the sandbagging, as there were a few sponsored riders in the "Punters" class.
I think if you have a major sponsor you should be in Elite, other wise should you be sponsored?
Does having a sponsor make you fast or are you saying only fast riders should be sponsored? Either of those seems crazy to me is allI think if you have a major sponsor you should be in Elite, other wise should you be sponsored?
I came up with 9.5kmAnyone know how long the track was? I don't think my computer was setup properly. Managed 17 laps but would love to know the distance...
So adding on 10% gets close enough to 9.5kmMy Garmin got the track length at 8.8km.
No good to hear about your finger, well done to keep going though..Awesome day out,
Had a bit of miss-communication, during the day as i was told Chops had stopped racing at about the 8hr mark.
So i was cruising most of the afternoon thinking I was in 3rd place.
I wasnt until I got to the end of my very last lap i was told how close Chops was in front .
Next time chops,
I also just got back from the doc and I have a cracked bone in my index finger,
that was from a crash at approx the 4hr mark.
I cant wait until next year.
Was about to enter open since I'm not sponsored but glad I didn't sandbag n entered elite in the end.. Definately should have to enter elite if your sponsored though..I reckon they will have to stop the sandbagging, as there were a few sponsored riders in the "Punters" class.

Agreed,Yeh I kinda felt bad for shane, chops and dreggsy there with nothing after putting in an awesome effort.. Would prefer to see the cash spread across the podium next time.Another suggestion maybe would be to distribute the cash prize pool to not just the winner of the elite category, but maybe top 3 or 5. Coz unless you had an actual chance of winning elite, why would you want to fork out an extra $40 or whatever on top of the entry fee to race?
That's what I would be thinking anyway.
Cool, glad to have been able to take your mind off of the pain for a bit. Top racing too.yea i went past you close to the 12hr mark nice shirt it put a lil smile on my face and out of the hurt box for a flicka of a second..
Me too, also hoping that some of the photographers throw up some links too. So many out there, I've never had my pic taken so many times in one lap.i'm hanging out for results like a crack whore waiting for a trick!!!!
