This won't be popular but look at the positives, last place will be wide open. Anyway, after hearing and reading all the stories about P'boro and feeling fcuked after an amble round Hersden yesterday I'm not going to do the OS event at the Brits unless I have a real change of heart just before the event. What with the whole 'OS going National' thing there's little chance I could keep up with you dedicated guys anyway either at the Brits or at any other time so my efforts turn it into a bit of a sideshow. I may have a change of heart and might just be looking at a pre-90 frame to build my bits into for next year but for now I think I'll grab my flags and offer my services at the Brits as a BC-trained official. This doesn't mean that others should feel they can't take part, just that I don't feel that I should. Humps

I guess as it's a charity even anyone can ride.

But I hope that everyone will keep to the old school bike rules, 1" headsets and caliper brakes.

Now watch out for the sandbaggers....

THIRSTYKIRSTY · « **Reply #69 on:** August 16, 2008, 09:33 PM »

GONNA BE FAST

JAI WILL WIN

AGAIN

Humps00 · « **Reply #70 on:** August 17, 2008, 09:08 AM »

I think I've seen on here that Jai won't be at the Brits so the racing is wide open. As far as I'm aware the OS class, being for charity, is open to anyone but best get Nikki or Ratty to confirm as last year Nikki had her two boys out there on NS bikes. If anyone desperately wants to ride but doesn't want to risk their bike then please PM me and you can borrow my Redline (bike-of-many-colours-and sh*te-brakes)as I'm not going to race but can easily chuck it (see that's how I treat the old girl) in the van for you. Any takers?? Humps

Oh NO!

It'll be such a shame if you can't get there.

Was certain you'd come home British Champ!
