i have west mids champs for 1500 meters on sat at 2 oclock! i have to run like my posteria is on fire...then make daddy-poodle drink 15 cans of red bull and listen to boy sets fire...then drive at 70mph Roll Eyes to get there for end of practice

i don't want to get to excited in case it doesn't compare to last time, but it's hard not to... bala ftw!

I've just returned from the shops and now I'm all stocked up on sausages, party rings and cider!

I do hope the weather is good, I want to go swimming again  Cheesy

i think that if you want to race the whole series pearce should let you book all 6 at the begining of the year.

because i wanted to do the whole series had to miss bringewood rd 3 because of exams and now have to miss bala because of riders who are not chasing points.

that means i can only do 4/6 races so cannot do well in the overall  Sad

can you imagine the carnage if we all had to shell out £300 in one hit just to get in?! I think they've got it just about right actually!

You only have to miss bala cos you didn't get your entry in in time... It was on their site for ages that entries go live on 1 May... Everyone knows the pearce races fill up flat out fast.

daaargh, some people  Roll Eyes

I agree with Emily in some ways and I managed to get in

I would however like to enter the whole series at the start of the season just to save mucking about
one of my buddies (a sponsored) ride failed to get in and sent a letter on may the 1st,
some people are not on the net and could not do it on line.

what ever happens some ones gonna be disappointed

Reckon they should have entries exclusively open for people who have raced at least 2 of the first three rounds only for the 1st week, then open invite for everyone else after then.

Mate of mine couldn't get to a computer and phone was constantly engaged too - as a result he has missed out on Bala and the next Hopton (even though he has already done the first three rounds)

Were you marshalling joe?  Someone kept on shouting at me, but I was undergoing a bit too much of a sensory overload to work out who Grin

I did ok, got a 3:10 which put me 18th of 85 seniors.  I've been 18th like 4 times this year, would be nice to crack the top15 or top10 occasionally ya know? Smiley

Actually just checked last year's results, and I'm pretty pleased.  I was 3seconds quicker today, but the fastest time of the day was 4 seconds slower today (due to it being dustier and the two new sections).  So overall a 7second improvement on last year for me, that's cool Smiley
