Last Chance for a bit of NPS action...

Fook me that was a tough today! Almost diverted to Rostrevor!

Plenty of rain made an excellent course into a v hard course! Not quite Cong territory, but made a lot of the technical stuff harder to ride.

I believe young Brendan Conroy was 2nd in his race, Erica rode a very steady race to take the podium.. Daniel B narrowly missed out on 2nd at the sprint for the line..

Good to see the EPIC Crew there, me, Terry Beard(I think his bike went up in Flames?), Oz&Erica, Daniel B, Rudolf, J.Doris, AdrianK, ColmP(how did you get on?), KevinL&Gary...

Good hard race, so roll on 2016 XC NPS!

They joys of XC racing, otherwise we'd all be playing Golf!
Another great day out

Up early practice lap done plenty of muck and side way slipping bike walking running bike washed got ready for start second outfit on all set for start
Reasonable start pulled back a few of places on fire road in to first downhill then a rest lying on ground back on no back brake ended up trying to run, walk get off before heading over bars on the downy bits so pulled over at end of first lap and lodged a DNF
Got to see end of S1 race highlight of day I would think for all spectators watching willing Dan and Graham on in the sprint to the line brilliant results for Dan
