Thank you very much Bill - super picture - shame I had visor up but I could not see!!!!! Really enjoyed event and that is from someone who was not on song - over 2 mins slower than earlier in season!
The Port Talbot are a credit to the sport and your promotions are always
first class to ride. Marshalling is the best - sometimes not always so on
R25/3 which I always find surprising.

PS always nice to come back to ENGLAND!!
PPS I see you boys called in to Gloucester ( I hope your passports were
checked and stamped)next time ring me I'll put kettle on)
Long live Wales ( well the R25/3!)
Thank you again

Nice photographs Bill!
And Animal Jones is scowling like the flippin' animal he is. As a bonus, there's a picture of Dai Abbott RACING! Yes, that's not a misprint. |

Photos have turned out okay, although there were loads of riders I missed. It's very difficult to get the camera to focus, and the ones I tried on 'Sports mode' were a disaster, so I went back to 'Auto'.
Apologies for not even making a pretence at marshalling, but there were at least six of us on that roundabout, and I was wearing a yellow coat. We only had two try to go down the old road, and neither lost much time. Thanks go to my wifes's business 'Umbrella Photography' for loaning the equipment.

How you were all so helpful and made the event wothwhile for all the competitors. 2 British records 12 PB's and lots of smiles all round. So for those of you who were at the start, finish or somewhere in between well done and thank you so much.
By the way--Did you hear who won the gallop last Saturday............ Not a bad week end all in all |

But, er, when are the results going to the shown on the website?
 I still haven't seen any of the times!  I've also looked on welshcyclingunion.com and cyclingtimetrials.org.uk and can't find anything there either. Where are these results going to be put? If they have been sent to Alf already then my apologies, but what's taking so long? :-) _______________ Electric bikes are great.

Give the guy some breathing space Bill. When I run my Saturday '10' I've got the luxury of having the Sunday to crash out some results and I know that Martin was working yesterday including the evening time.

Sorry about hassling on the result! I didn't know it was in hand.
I could have a go at pasting in the result - but since it's already on Cycling Time Trials, we probably shouldn't steal their thunder. That said though, CTT doesn't say which of those results are British Records. Does anyone know? I've also had another very complimentary response worth publishing:

What is the category?
MIXED VETERAN TANDEM?? In rowing that would be the equivalent of breaking the record for the mixed coxed triple  I shouldn't be so rude... 48:12 is a seriously fast time, whoever's on the bike. _______________ Electric bikes are great.
