We finally made it through a long race, most of us anyway!

Ditto on the thanks.

Times:  https://www.bhpc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/Events/2024/05/  (First 3 TT start times corrected - I had it in the wrong mode, because I'm an idiot.)



Congratulations to everyone who didn't crash or have an unfortunate mechanical!

We don’t seem to be seeing many velomobiles taking part in BHPC events this year… Have we scared them off?? 😁
Top 6 in Faired Multitrack are actually all unfaired trikes at the moment and there are only 7 events left…
Multitrack is looking pretty competitive. Gerry Charlwood and Dave Minter are going really well and making it great fun. The old Windcheetah was really good up the hill this weekend but I’m pretty sure I’ll struggle to keep up with them on the flatter tracks.

Okay, who left their helmet (black, with unmarked BHPC tags) at the trackside on Sunday?  I joked about unpacking the tag reader to find out whose it was, but with hindsight this might have been a good idea.  Andrew currently has it, and will bring it to York.

Thanks to all for a very enjoyable weekends racing, marred only by scratching my cornea taking out my contact lens at the end of the day, resulting in a trip to the eye hospital this morning, and a week off work in a dark room…
A puncture saw to my best intentions 10mins into the 90min race, and the remaining 80mins on a hastily borrowed folding bike was slow going!
Hopefully will all be mended by York…

Left  at Gravesend last Sunday.
