Heard about TJ's bike, nutcase that chap is

Heard Spillers had a good result, well done that man

Chloe Oaten took a really well deserved 6th place, "go Chloe, go Chloe"

Apparently a VERY nasty stack in 25+ rumours that the eventual champ warned she was moving over, took out 3 riders and 1 has a suspected broken hip

Hope it aint broke Claire, heal quick

Sure Nick will be able to tell us, apparently a good show with 18 riders in the Old School, lets hope next year with a southern revival that we can get numbers back up in the 40's

There were some nasty crashes, not sure who was involved. A small girl and a woman were strechered of this afternoon, looked nasty too !

Not sure who won old school - we couldn't hear the mic !

Anyway there were some blinding races, some of the best I have seen

As for that Kemp bloke, well he made me chuckle, not as much as Pete mind and his hungry hippo

Was also great to meet Mr Hunterdubber and good to see Gary 72 and Kuwahero, missed Mr Stupple tho

Kev, bad luck there dude!

Do you know who won?

Gary72 · « **Reply #15 on:** September 20, 2009, 10:18 PM »

Moley said he had TJ's bike test on video. I was happy I made it to the 1/4's. Then got caught up in a crash on the first corner and got 5th. Felt for Mark Barden had a run off in my class 3 out of 4 riders went through but not him.

Top day of racing, but I feel like a 70 year old today after racing 2 classes.

Stacked it in the Old School semi trying to nicked that all important 4th slot. Old school bikes are fooking shit

Best Brits I've been to since Harworth 2006.

BUBBS · « **Reply #21 on:** September 21, 2009, 11:15 AM »

Top day watching the racing over 700 riders, great track, good company with Pete and nick, down side not enough food

My 1st Brits

and I made the final. Was my worst race of the day, but got a 6th courtesy of Andy Hill and Cotty crashing in separate incidents. What a brilliant days racing.

Moley spent the whole day recording, so the DVD(s) will make some watching. You've got to give the man a heap of credit for the amount of time and effort he puts in to give us the opportunity to re-live these moments. Thanks fella.

Only 18 riders in OS class, which may make it a bit iffy for next year though, not as strong a showing as was hoped by the BCF I fear.

Well done to everyone who made the effort, and a big big thanks to Moley, Boff and OJ for letting me crash in their caravan.

My first Brits.

Great event. Got wrecked both nights, rolled round on a borrowed cruiser and fluked my way into the semis.

And got sun burnt!

Class.

San, 18 riders in old school was alright, I thought. More than Junior female (which only had 14 riders). And the old school race fees generated £360 more than they would've taken if there had been no old school class. Should be a regular feature if the regions can keep their OS classes running. I will probably do cruiser and OS in future now I know there's enough rest time between motos.

In the scheme of things though, considering the thousands of members on here, 18 is quite a small turnout. I guess doing 5 races to qualify for the Brits might be the biggest problem for most people who aren't regular/new school racers.
