I was thinking of entering a fat bike team for the 6 hour race on Sunday, (I get back from holiday Saturday). Hopefully all SS, not that there's no ss catagory on Sunday, but entering as Old Git's (average age over 40).
Anyone interested, idea to have fun, but it would be nice to be quite quick.

Charlie, Crashy, are you up for this? Anyone else?

OK, Me, Charlie, Crashy?
Mantastic and Jeremy, are you local? I could ride round the course with you and see if you're still up for it.

Depends what you mean by local, I live in Worcestershire and drink in Chippen Sodbury/Yate a lot due to brother living there so localish to bristol and midlands.

You comment " but it would be nice to be quite quick" Certainly rules me out, more of your chilled rider here. Although managed 4 solo 24hour races, i wont win prizes for speed.

Our team won Oktoberfest Old Gits race a few years back, 2nd last year, on "normal" SSers. We won't win but it would be good to hold our own......
