The start

The tree on 'wave of mutilation' to ride or not to ride it? that is the question.

 
Alex, making it over.

 
George, prior to getting off & walking over.

 
Nick Ffoulkes who assures me he does actually ride his bike.

 
Marcus Darcus, Immediately prior to going over the bars.

 
Jamie Newall, shortly before scaring a small child senseless & causing a carefully carried empty bird shell to be squashed in his fright. Expect sticks in spokes next week. A mothers love knows no bounds!! The clerk of the course (the father) will also take it into account when allocating points.

 
We could pretend George rode it, but that would be telling porkies!

 
Chris White, riding it beautifully each time.

 
Adrian, exhausted at the finish.
