Round 13 Results

Results at last. Some crack at the start/finish line tonight - the abuse was comical. The best helpers I ever had!

feck off, my bottom is still stinging me!

All I'll say is Brendan is one indecent old man ...the state of him in those Knickers..that was some craic though !! we have to get a Crowd every week doing that **** and the list of riders Numbers is a gift !!
Steve Walsh even brought his own crowd..hes another taxi driver by the way !! It won't be long before there will be a Taxi driver Category in the NPS !!!
I freakin reallly enjoyed that tonight !! the state of Fergals bike in the Car Park !! then he drove off down the M50 with it looking like something Dermot Galvin grew !!
what else would you be doing !! Anybody who says XC is boring is a dimwit !! thanks guys !!
and to Fergal for getting the Start times to me ..
Richie

Great craic out there tonight. Lil-Let legs didnt feel great, I was still a bit stiff from the weekend, plus being assaulted after every lap didnt help! it seemed to help Oisin though... Hmmmm .
Good to see the gout infected D'Alfie shelling out the abuse.

some fast times there !!! 12.00 is the new 14.00 !! or 13.00 , savage !! Rob Davis changing Gear with his flute ...thats the **** i'm talking about !! it will be interesting to see who has made the biggest improvement at the end of the league !! of Course they will get a trophy !!

My new goal is to get a 12 minute lap, I've got to find 34 seconds from somewhere! It won't be in the singletrack but 11 seconds on each climb...let me get out my abacus....if I can do that I'll build my own feckin trophy!

Don..
at the moment I have a Virtual Irish Mountainbike Hall of Fame..
You're in it..right beside Glyn O Brien and Eddie Beechnoir Colllins..Fame is fickle..I'd say i'm one of the few who remembers fast Eddies contribution to the Sport !! You don;t ever need a trophy !!
Just go in to that bedroom tonight..strip to your Boxers spread your legs..put your fists on your hips and say to your lovely wife ,
" Brace yourself Bridget !!!"

Hahhahaha! Not a bad idea as I'm afraid to close my eyes, that's when then post race terrors get me. Last week a booted catherine out of the bed screaming "Rider up!".

That was great craic tonight! Thanks to Bon and Roo and to all the "Encouragers" - I think Alfie was probably best "Get your arse off the saddle and pedal you fat ****er"! A minute off my best overall time and 3 sub 15 minute laps .... sub 14 is do-able (I think!). Great dices all race, thanks to Fergal for all his efforts with the handicaps!

That was savage lads, it was all going great untill my wheel fell off and threw me onto my head! Happy I got a sub 12 minute lap though, that was the goal. I was in the middle of all the fast lads after fixing the wheel and had some good dices with Fergal and then made Max say he's giving up mountainbiking by passing him on a climb!
It's a shame there's no race next week now...looking forward to the nationals though!

well a bit of a messy race for me, took fecking ages to get my tire of the wheel to fix the flat but feck it still fun..

cheers lads

I can't believe they all forgot about ya Jack! Couldnt even wait for you to finnish the race before they left!

Thanks to brian and roo for the timin and encouragement got a pb second lap then punctured last lap, think its time to go tubeless. Lookin forward to gettin a spin on the nationals course next week.

pb last night for me, I think! I dont remember much of the abuse goin on at the start fininsh Roo and Alfie were gas. Poor Don......I came up behind him on the climb up to the 2nd tech section "on your right Don" "on your right Don" "heh heh heh on your left" hahahah he coild hardly speak. As for baldy old git, thats a story for another day. great craic once again thanks to timers and shouters!!

well pleased , another pb for me too, finally breaking into the 12's, . I don't know if I was going any better but the course just seems to ride faster and faster each week. Hope you're Ok Dr Dithers, looked like you came down heavily. It was all Lynchy's fault anyway since we were both determined to get him before the finish line and if he'd just had the decency to slow down and let us pass then all would have been fine. Thanks to the timers and the legends at the finish line for the encouragement / abuse.
