Looking at the front tires today, I realised that I grind them half way. Just happy that the race at Gravesend did not last longer.
How about a tilting faired trike as a winter project? You could have Mft class all to yourself.

Hmm... not sure about that but it's almost certainly (a) not a Festina (https://flic.kr/p/ouaP2W) and (b) not what he was riding at Fowlmead.

Fess up Andy - tell us what you were riding at Fowlmead and Gravesend and I'll get your classes right.

Andy had a puncture during the race at Fowlmead and switched to Fiona's bike. At Gravesend, the same tyre went down again, so he started the 40 min race on Fiona's bike. I think he did the TT on his own bike, but I'm not sure. As Fiona's bike has a tail-fairing, he shouldn't get unfaired points.

Why is Larrington always right about everything?? What's more, in 10 years time you could ask him what bike Andy was riding at Gravesend in 2014 and he'd still be right.

Are you suggesting Nick that it has been deemed that the purpose of The Second Coming is to enlighten the world to the benefits of recumbent cycles?! Shocked

So that's why it says 'Devine' (sp?) underneath his Badger-Badger-Badger icon.
