A total of 38 started so we weren't the only nutters out that day. Not a bad result for me but know I'm capable of better. Will try race there again next weekend (fingers crossed it will be warmer) and will have more of an idea of who to look out for in the closing stages as Ive checked the previous results and the same names do keep cropping up.

nice work fellers

So having been cruising around just training at level one for 3 months my boys did good. Beating Ant in the 4ths and only losing out to the two winter series stalwarts in the E/1/2/3s because I cocked it up by not leading my man out. Good to see we're so competitive already, when most of the field's at the winter series race there every week.

Comforting to see that for my efforts I will receive 21 BC points as I'm told that the race has been upgraded to National B! Haha, I think its hilarious that this time last year I was slaving away to score 40 points for promotion to 2nd cat, and now I get 21 points just for rolling over the line in 15th place! haha!

Roll on the next one and more free points... if I can maintain a points/race average of 21 it won't be long til the Elite licence arrives...

[Andy E]

Well done Ant & Serge. Good to see some ACC results on the board already.

[Michelle]

Well done 4th Cats.

Next week looks much nicer in terms of weather!

[Keith]

I'm really surpirised at 20 4th cat entries and 44 E123s when the temperature was around -5°C.

People must really want those points.

[-Adam-]

To be honest Keith, I probably wouldn't have raced had it not been part of my programme...

[Keith]

Adam, I've just checked the BC website, and my Boxing Day 9th place was "actually" 5th when you remove all of the Elites & 1st cats.

5 points is much nicer than 1!!!

[-Adam-]

I know, it's great isn't it! Since they are apparently now National B (Band 3, so 30, 25, 21, 19 points etc...) it makes 59 minutes on ice almost worthwhile!

Adam,

I am surprised you didn't point out that you were the 2nd best placed 1st cat, awesome.

Cheers

Maybe they were doing some speed work over the winter.

Probably , we'll see how they fare when the proper races start...
