That first one you have of Rob Watkinson (122) is quality, really shows how hard that part of the hill was. The backdrop with the town below really makes it a good pic. good work.
To allay all the FALSE accusations about my speed up the hill, I was obviously FLYING way to fast for your shutter to capture me. |

No, none. Though a local sculptur did manage to cast a bronze statue of me in the time between me crossing the bridge and rounding the hairpin.
How did this start, ah yes it was Lee remarking he had a couple of pictures of me.
This must stop or newcomers to the site might think I am a total biff. 
And that would never do. |

Touche.
There were actually 2! A winter of cross according to Wardy will see my handling improve no end. Just watch it next season! 
I can actually go up them ok. I'll just never enter a downhill climb if such an event was ever put on. |

Agreed. Whilst you may climb like a rat up a pipe, your skills coming down the other side are shocking. Or is that more to do with me being twice your weight? |

Myself and Schneck Snr went and watched the TLI Cross at Killingworth on sunday, got to be honest it looked like pretty a pretty good laugh.
There was some ridiculous bling on show for plowing over muddy terrain though. I think i'd be more at the budget end of the cross scale!

That the one Tony won? He's going well just now. I make my cross debut on Nov 8th, I think you two should also. Lets take bets on how many times the WARDINATOR laps me! |

Unfortunately finances won't stretch to a cross bike at the moment.
Plus I'm fully unwound and well into the off season now, didn't even force myself to go out on sunday morning when I had a raging hangover! Thats how we ended up going to watch the cross.
Although if i could pick up a frame & a few other bits i'd probably have enough gear to put a bike together.
