I had a bit of a snag with a work doo that went on a bit and basically I'd have only caught the last 20 minutes so thought I'd just head to the pub instead. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8774#post-89472 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 11:02:06 +0000 recombodna 89472@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>You still got some good shots though.I thought there would be a lot more fancy dress. Anyway I didn't come last....... nearly though 53rd...... my chain kept falling off etc etc etc!! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8774#post-89453 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 10:02:03 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 89453@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The suit was a really nice touch. </p> <p>I guess the flash could be off-putting, I was more just disappointed that it meant I wasn't going to get any shots of the outfits (you could never tell if the rider coming towards you was in fancy dress or not, given the high-powered lights pointing straight at you - it was a case of focussing on those lights and hoping!). Next time I really need to recce the course properly to organise myself. I just kinda turned up and went for it last night (had also had a stressful day at work and wasn't at my most sociable...).</p> <p>The suit was a nice touch - feel free to nab the pic off Flickr :) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8774#post-89446 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 01:13:36 +0000 recombodna 89446@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Ha ha Mr Cow that's a great photo of me my pal tony in the hi viz!!! Nice to see you there and a shame that some folks took it a bit too serious. I think a suit is the only way to dress when t comes to cyclo cross don't you know..... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8774#post-89445 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 00:42:52 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 89445@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142948468/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8335/8142948468_345006c796.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142948468/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142947234/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8191/8142947234_1cfe4c1afd.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142947234/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142942276/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8463/8142942276_d9b0becd03.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142942276/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142917515/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8463/8142917515_d82e5372ea.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142917515/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142949452/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8056/8142949452_ff5301ffba.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142949452/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142951270/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8053/8142951270_1d379dd192.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackpuddinonnabike/8142951270/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/blackpuddinonnabike/">blackpuddinonnabike</a>, on Flickr </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8774#post-89433 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 20:52:37 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 89433@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Anyone else make it. Not many photos, a rider had a sense of humor failure over my flash going off to the side. Couldn't be arsed with any aggro. Good course, more difficult to follow than 'ordinary' cross...
