Well done you lot, big ACC showing at the event.
Cap'n how was it for you- did the parrot slow you down or was he in an aero tuck- BTW plenty of booty in Cornwall for you, best get that E2E ride in fast me hearty

Chapeau to mrpvt for riding out at the crack of dawn to cheer us on for this one. Pas de chapeau for leaving his entry form in the car so he couldn't ride it.

This week's positives - more Rawson Shield points and (for me) a season's best in my first 10 of the year .

More points available in the SCCU 50 on 1 July. Go on, you know you want to ...

Arrrr, I tell ee I never shoulda taken that extra bag o dubloons with me.

Up at 4am - wasn't going to repeat last weeks late start débacle Good natured atmosphere around the HQ as the Rawson Shield winback attack gathered pace.

I went along hoping to get under 29 mins, my best on the course being 29.29 from last September. It was breezy, The Prez came to my rescue and lent me her spare pair of gloves. Pressure on - got to deliver now

No pusher off Quite breezy out and about but I felt in reasonable nick - I think this training I've been doing the past few weeks is slowly beginning to help. Pushed as hard as I could, got up to 29.9mph at one point and crossed the line, legs burning, with a 28.52.

Mission accomplished!

Back at HQ very sorry to hear that John had a blowout. He must've hit something significant as the tub was well and truly sliced - no way back for that tyre.

So for me, a good day. I went on to do several hours of hard labour in the garden tending me veggies and cutting grass. I then went to a mate's 40th birthday party and got somewhat mashed . Bed at 4am Sunday, a busy 24 hrs!

Arrrrr - Snoop

I've just got the result sheet for this and a rather pleasant surprise by way of a cheque for coming second on handicap . Missed the big one by just 3 seconds but not through lack of effort.

Well done Mike, it's always good to get a handicap prize.

You'll have to slow up for the next 3 years before you can have another shot
