Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

CX is less tech than an mtb course

Morning all. I have the shoulder of doom after my steroid injection yesterday. Perhaps swimming wasn't the best idea. Rest today.

bUGGER, WE'VE GONE OVER THE PAGE. AND MY CAPS lock is on, sorry.

I was at the 2012 Olympic cross country and it was fully gnarly.

I shall now go back and read Coachpod's post more carefully.

Okay, abuse of power. I've temporarily dumped Gobi's post in the siderer so I can read it and type at the same time.

It's my business. It's my hat.

Crits are 'safer' - agree - in that you'll get injured by bikes - broken bones and shit maybe, but noting like being hit by a car.

Our old 'div 3 captain' at North Weald, a local legend by the name of Dave Tompkins, still races crit and XC in his seventies and wins stuff in his age group, won't ride on the road because it's too dangerous.

So, the worst road race crash I was in a chap hit a car and caravan . He was on the wrong side of the road trying to get set up for a climb.

Poor caravan driver never had a chance.

Chap flew and his bike went over my head, took the peloton out i ended up in a bush still on my bike but got off to help with first aid and had no desire to carry on racing.
