Big Dog

As an out and out roadie, I don't tend to hit the dirt all too often, but Saturday saw me head down to the Brighton Big Dog 6 hour enduro.  Going along with the brand team, the aim was to have a laugh.


Aside from a sprained wrist from our very own Big Dog, Brattle, I think a good time was had by all.  Cervelo brand manager Jim McConnel managed a great third place overall in the men's solo, only being denied second spot by a crash on the final lap which saw the last of his nine not counted in the overall result, missing the cut off my just over a minute - pretty harsh! Genesis brand manager, 'little Dom' also had a sterling ride managing to bag himself a top 10, with 7th spot overall in the men's solo.  Myself?  24th overall in the solos.  Not bad for a novice on a very techy course.  Two punctures didn't help my cause either!


Came out unscathed, and had a great time.  However, next time, I think I will have to race it and go for a top position.  Dare I say, I might enjoy mountain biking?!
