Hey where was everybody today I was the only Agreeable at the Hill.
All the singletrack sections round the back and side of Herne hill were the slipperiest I'd ever seen, I really had to concentrate to keep upright.
Got a fair start into 6th or 7th place, I was struggling today round the grass, I think I was a bit fatigued as I didn't have my usual power on the field.
But once I got into the perimiter everyone else just went backwards sliding all over the place and I was hollaring and whooping with glee loving the sliding around. Here I made a few places and was up just behind Jody Crawforth
. and the Arctic boyz.Stuart Jones(London Phoenix) and Andy Waterman(Dulwich Paragon) were on a charge and I couldn't keep with them today.
Just as I was getting into the swing of things my rear mech EXPLODED
AGAIN 
right at the far side of the course, I had no option but to dump the bike and run Hurdle Stylee across the circuit to get my MTB which was primed and awaiting any mechanical malfunctions of my Cross steed. I then picked up the MTB and ran back to where I had the mishap and got on my way again, to much applause from the crowd
The MTB was much slower on the grass but super grippy in the mud round the sides and I could ride most of the banks easily with my low gears and fat tyres.
I must have lost a whole heap of time with this episode and on the last lap Jody lapped me and took the checkered flag.I lost a few places in that kerfufle so finished down a few places from where I deserved but HEY HO I still finished cos nothings gonna stop me form racing my bike
