Chipps asked me yesterday how many SSUKs I’d done. I’d never given it a thought. I knew that I’d missed the first (Hinchwick Manor, Gloucestershire fact fans) and one in Wales, which it turns out meant that SSUK 08 would make it a dirty* dozen. Past experience at Drumlanrig Castle told me it would […]
SSUK 08 has appeared over the horizon incredibly quickly this year.
See you there.
Sports Class racer heading for a fall
I went to marshall at the Early Dawes race the other weekend, a brand new grassroots race at Walton Woods, Walton on Trent. Driving past Catton Park on the way to the race I was encouraged to see small children sledging down parts of the Sleepless In The Saddle […]
Having sat on the rowing machine through the British men winning the Team Pursuit Gold, setting a new world record in the process, Kirsty and I went to see the real thing last Friday at the World Track Championships in Manchester.
We didn’t miss out as one of the first things we saw on Friday evening […]
Eston, 1997
Uncle Peter captains the tandem of doom at Eston in 1997. There’s actual air under that rear wheel.
Nannerch, 1997
This was my first race on a ‘true’ singlespeed as opposed to the bodged up (chain tensioned) GT or cylco-cross bike I’d been riding until then. A borrow of “Uncle Tufty”, running a frankly silly 34:16 gearing at Nannerch in North Wales in 1997. Check out those thighs!
This outburst from Flloyd Landis contains some interesting points.
FL: Look, I don’t know what Mayo did or didn’t do. All I know is that the reason you have protocol for anti-doping stuff is because anti-doping is based on science, and science is based on performing tests according to certain criteria. And if you don’t perform […]
Ben Wyvis at Strathpuffer 2006
Good luck to everyone racing in the Scottish darkness this weekend.
We’ll be thinking of you. Especially dRj0n whenever we have a coffee.
A whole shitstorm has kicked off over on MTBR here and here (careful - it’s slow as slow thing these days), about the SSWC08.
Looks like Curtiss et al did a great job of weeding out the undesirables to me. Some of the comments being thrown their way are clear indications that the protaginists are the […]
From Curtis…

Actually we‚re lying about the Maverick since some low-life stole it.
A dogs dinner of links to stuff that we have arranged in an apparently random manner, though I assure you it made sense at the time.
You know it makes sense.

Remember kids, vinyl can't carry Digital Rights Management.
in no particular order...
For all that we like the up-to-the minute offerings of the web there‚s nothing like a proper badly photocopied A5 fanzine or a glossily printed proper magazine to keep you occupied on the throne. Here, in no particular order, is our material of choice.
In the UK as we give away our civil liberties in the name of freedom it might be handy to be aware of Photographers Rights.
Don’t let The Man stop you shooting.
If anyone has a full set of NEMBA results (that‚s North of England for you colonial types) then please forward them.
