Anyone recognise this old has been? I did a 20 mile running race yesterday and the last few miles reminded me of what it felt like during the last part of a mountain bike race.

No, carrying a few more pounds than I used to Was back in the pub in time for the match, I missed the last five minutes so does anyone know the final score from the Millenium Stadium

Michael - those Orange bottoms have served me well

you must have had the first pair after Lester did you? I think they were made at Been Bag. I've still got a few pairs left as well but current fashion dictates that i wear baggies to go riding in, that and the fact I've put on a bit of weight

Did the Rhayader Round the Lakes a few years ago, very tough, not just the 20 miles but also a very serious and long climb in the first few miles. Tougher than a marathon in my estimation.

You are right it is a tough race, the little climbs at the end do not help either. I have thought about doing the race for the last 13 years and at last I got round to it. Clive Powell was out watching, for those who do not know Clive he was probably the first person to offer mountain bike guiding in the UK.
