If your 'knackered old carthorse' is who I think it is I think he's still quicker than me (by 1 second :( ) especially when it comes to anything with an uphill slope. Just make sure you give him a hard time :lol:

I will be busy trying not to upset Terry (by making him do an extra 500 yards down the wrong road) this year.

Unfortunately Smythe was already booked to drag another carthorse round on that day. A carthorse with one leg already in the glue factory by the name of Richard Hallett.

My carthorse is James Shrubsall and between us we've got four legs in the Araldite!

A team unlikely to be troubling the scorers

At least you should have a good chance on standard at your age Huw :wink:

Sorry - the older you are the far more time you get given as 'standard' so the event is generally won on standard by some whippersnapper of 70 who can knock out 20 minute 10s in their sleep.

The under 60s like yourself have no chance!

Looks like CW could dominate the real time rankings though with you 4 out. None of you are exactly slow. I seem to recall that Smythe, Hallett and Shrubsall all put several minutes into me over a similar course at the beginning of the season :shock: (May be wrong about whether James was racing but if he was he would have done).

But that was then and this is now;

You've spent the summer taking several minutes off, James has spent the summer putting several pounds on

Awesome ride! I can now say that I've ridden against that Richard Viney. Check out the super-fast looking pictures on the rtt.org.uk site - that Wiggins bloke looks useful too.
