national derny championships

[stevefunkster]

had to miss the TOK as i promised to take my girlfriend to the derny's up at herne hill, upon arrival met shaun just as the last heat was half way through, i wondered how exciting it could be watching motorbikes pulling cyclists round(not literally)but how wrong i was rather than people sucking wheels and waiting for the last lap or so it was solid pedalling all the way, with 33 laps for the heats we thought it was fast then the final started at 66 laps! the first few laps were 30 seconds, but gradually got faster and faster till the last ones being more like 20,great exciting racing all the way and tasty bacon rolls and big cups of teas, not sure of the riders names but shaun informed me the winner was a regular down at the palace, would recomend going along to watch this style of racing to anyone.

[Tamar Collis]

Yeah, but teenage girls have beaten Bryan off-road. It's only at the track or Palace that he puts his race head on.
