You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Really? Is that common at this sort of event? Sounds like a massive waste to me.
I spoke to so many people that pulled out after practice. More fool them as the race conditions were perfect. There were 200 E2 places and only 171 started. A good chunk of them must have rode the practice days and decided not to bother. Some may have had mechanicals but anyone I spoke to pulled out because they weren't up for it, rather than being forced out.
I suppose in E1 there'd be some serious folks who were out of contention after a day and just didn't want to keep racing and taking risks for nothing. And people that limped to the end of the stages, etc. In E2 I think there were quite a few just caught out by the sheer difficulty
(yeah I know we've been over this... But at innerleithen, what we tend to get is race stages that are challenging, but most decent riders can at least get down them slowly, and they're just very hard to ride fast. And no doubt other folks thought Glentress = Mincing. Peaty did!)
It's a bloody shame there couldn't be a last minute subs list though. But otoh shrinkage helps race organisers- day 1 ran right to the last minute, if there'd been another 20 people to get through stage 4 some of them would have missed the final cutoff.
Oh... But I think there was another thing, which is that it ended up being a 5 day event and there wasn't much warning of that, so there were tons of people who couldn't practice, others who'd basically planned for a sunday race instead of 2 days racing, etc. Life stops play. I took the week off to do other Tweedlove stuff and dig stages and that, so it worked out.
I took a lot of bad photos, here are some of the more gooder ones

What a fantastic weekend.
Goals were:
Finish.
Finish alive.
Don't come last.
Goals all achieved. Result!
I'm not sure if they read this but we met the nicest family when we finished day 1. Their kid was asking us all for signatures when we clocked in and then they gave us the rest of their chips.
Wysiwyg - any photos of 461 at all? Neon Yellow bike
Thanks to you all!
nah 80 out of 300 is very unusual Id say that less than 5% would pull out of a tough UKGE like Ae or Inners
A couple of the guys we saw on thursday practice pulled out,I think they were really struggling with the climbs, even though they were better on the downs than me
and getting to the top of a full on super steep techy descent when your already shagged is quite scary
some people just decided that the risk wasnt worth it, I suppose that if your priority is job, family etc and you reckon theres a high risk of injury then I can kind of see why, even the organisers admitted this was the techiest round theyd run so far
still its a big shame considering that the event was so over-subscribed and the runs had dried out a fair bit by saturday and were actually quite grippy on sunday for teh GT trails
ps, wysiwig any other pics of 164
pps who do i get into burlesque photography 😉

Anyone who wants a pic if you could paypal me @ wysiwygphotography@gmail.com add your race number and email address to send the pic to the note please.
Look like a great event.
There was a segment on the new BBC Scotland programme which was shown tonight -
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b045p8bt/on-the-road-2014-episode-1
Brilliant pics wysiwyg. Did you get any of 439, 473 or 563 from day 2?
What a joke that BBC program was, "We're here at the country's biggest cycling event, but let's not talk about that, let's do a photography feature. Oh there's a world series race? Who cares." Bag o shite.
That's the BBC for you, it's not like it's funded by us or anything.
Awesome weekend, the trails were tough & it was hard work but loved most of it, there were a few 'dark' moments on the climbs but hey.
Goals were to finish and not come last, achieved both of those so pretty happy...

justin nothing that high, only saw a few e2 on each stage as had to hit stage 4 from 3 and leg it home after e1 on stage 4
No worries, I guess that's the price you pay for being lazy and pushing up the climbs.
Double post
To all those that have mailed me, bit late now so give me a day to go through and properly sharpen them up etc. Cheers guys.

Wysiwyg - Do you have my two riding buddies 253 and 570? Will be in touch for a hi-res copy of the one of myself. Cheers.
Hi, how about 175? I saw your earlier one, but would be interested in others.
Cheer

Wysiwyg, how much are you looking for the photos?
Wysiwyg, do you have one of 404 going off the drop on Sundays last stage?
Wysiwyg - riding mates 37 and 540 also please. Thanks very much.
At work currently. Everyone who's PPd me shall receive tonight.
I shall check through for others later
And I'm asking for whatever you think they're worth. I asked for a couple of quid but amounts have varied - thanks all.
Great shots, I'm sure all the guys in the various marketing depts for clothing companies will be chuffed looking at all the pics where everyone is wearing Enduro colorways... 😉
Anyone know what happened to Scott Laughland? Looks like he completed stage 1 in decent order then dropped out.
(I like it when he does well at things, we get announcements in our office news like "Student receives funding award" "New carbon capture scheme approved" "Graduate rides bike like a mofo")
Scotty broke his collarbone on stage one, his dad was in the same start group as me.
Ah, that's no good 🙁 He got a pretty good time for a man with a bust collarbone though!
Any update on the guy that got helicoptered off the hill on Saturday. I saw him getting put on the spineboard at the feed station. He was conscious and moving his legs so hopefully he's ok.
Wysiwyg, any shots of 498? Think I was so late in that everyone had gone home...
cheers

Any update on the guy that got helicoptered off the hill on Saturday. I saw him getting put on the spineboard at the feed station. He was conscious and moving his legs so hopefully he's ok.
According to what I heard from one of the tweed valley mountain rescue guys on Sunday, I believe he walked out of hospital on Saturday evening - severe bruising only, lucky guy!
I don't know what happened to the guy that came off head first into a tree about 100 yards from the end of stage 8 on Sunday, he did not make pretty noises, nor look healthy. When he was stretchered off, he was moving his hands and feet though.
Hi Wysiwyg, great shots. Do you have any of 522? I'd be more than happy to send a few pounds your way. Thanks.
Everyone whos PPd me should have pics, if ive missed you please let me know via email.
I'll have a look for any other requests now.

Wysiwyg - I don't think Angie will mind. If you've got several of her just post a couple of choice pics. I guess the Berghaus kit will be good since she works for them.
Several.. I can't find any. Hence the request for what she's wearing? What bike and lid?
Ah, right. Purple Orange Five with white fox forks. Red and blue Berghaus top. White and pink fox flux lid, googles. Blonde hair.

wysiwyg..... Any shots of me mate? No 532 ta....
I'll take a look.
Paging nodrog. you didn't inc an email address.
Wysiwyg - same email that is in my profile, cheers.
Cheers bud. I'm beginning to think I didn't do it, nae photos of me anywhere.
It felt a bit like most of the photographers buggered off home after the pros tbh. Which is daft, you'd think, it's us knobbers that buy photos 😆 I suppose folks hope to get the one brilliant pro shot that sells for a packet.

If you want the hi res give me a shout
Nice one, good shot.
Do you have any of number 452?
wysiwyg, looking at the locations you took your shots from there must be some cracking, OMG I've got this totally wrong photos?
Shame to just see the ones of the guys looking awesome...
I too, want to see your best crash photos
(I never get good crash photos. when I see someone crashing I instinctively stop taking pics to mkae sure they're ok. I need to be a bit more heartless sometimes 😈 )
Hi wysiwyg, any of 426? Bright green helmet and goggles if it helps?
Cheers, Euan
Hi wysiwg,
I know I'm late to the party but only stumbled across this forum today. Any chance you've any pictures of rider 520? Luminous green MADMTB jersey, Irish flags on the shoulders, green and black Bluegrass Full Face Lid in Innerleithen, Fox Flux open face lid in Glentress and on a black and red Devinci.
Much appreciated if you could check and post if you have any, will send you a few bob for hi-res if you have any of me
Conor
