Here are just a few from yesterday afternoon/evening. (It was bitterly cold)
A big thankyou to the organiser Marc, and congratulations to everyone who took part, have you warmed up yet?

Yes, Alice was presenting the prizes. (She wasn't allowed to race - not old enough :eek: )

Most of these were taken by Paul Watson, with some taken by Alice Powell's mum! I did the others.

There's some good photos there - especially with all of you on the podium for a group photo.

I wasnt there, but even still..... Thanks to Alice fot#r taking time out to attend the race and give out the prizes too.

I'm glad you all had fun

Kez, I didn't think you were cold due to your layering technique ;) lol

Thoroughly enjoyable (from a spectators point of view) even if it was very cold :o Just sad I couldn't stay longer at the pub :(

Nice to see everyone again, including a couple of new faces :)

We could not make the pub afterwards :( Sorry!
Hopefully at any future event, a few more people will be able to come along, I know MarcF really wanted to tackle the bigger circuit. I think there were one or two last people night thought that they were going to race on the bigger circuit?

I'm not sure why anyone thought it was on the bigger circuit, I did post months ago that it had moved to the short one and I contacted everyone that had already paid me at that point to let them know and to arrange repayment of the difference in price. (The last of which were returned yesterday.)

I may have been wrong it was just an impression I got hence the question mark! (was not a critisim)
I think the circuit was very good, short, but challenging.

God do my arms still ache, even now! I managed to make it through all my races without spinning or crashing into the tyres, so I good day for me.

Plenty of incidents going on, no stewards inquiry needed. :p

Marc W: Thanks again for taking on the organisation of this, I can imagine it was extremely hard work.

The group photo now takes pride of place on my desktop.

Also thanks Ed1 for making a pictures thread for us. :D

What made me cold, was that, i had to hike for about 10 minutes to get my bus to help me get nearer to home! :confused:

What didn't help is that neither on coming or going, my buses had warm heating, so i had to wait until 10pm to grab a hot meal!!! :mad:

I'd happily turn up again, to come and support you guys again next year! :D
