8.099km with 295m climb in 1:06:12. NGOC wnl event at Leckhampton hill new to me. Bigger than expecting. Set out on eastern loop. Fairly scrappy and not going very fast. Well confused at 23 not obvious what was going on at the time. Too high qnd overshot 24. Half Time up before the far 50 pointer. Not yet up to only 10 minutes left at 3 so went for the big loop for the other 50 pointer knowing I would be late. got a nit stuck at back of farm for 27 which put me off going for 26 but I should of as it would not of cost 3 mins. Up hill after the 50 pointer was not really expected. Time up at about 4 Skiped 17 which again was probably wrong got 22 though for 6 mins late. Should of probably headed straight back from 3 there were 140 points on offer but I had a net 100 going as I went.

Ben showed how it should be done he really should of cleared it.

Only 1285 ranking points on Saturday which is very disappointing. I don't think that is even my best score for the year but it's by far my best result in the last year. I assume that it's whatever is happening with the variance term in the equation that is restricting me.

Looking at the long class Tommi is getting 1284 for 70 minutes. My m/km would give me about 61 on the long which is 1321...

73.533km with 404m climb in 3:11:04. Midland mtbo 3 hours south of and through Loughborough. Did the main hill at the start then a clockwise loop. Took 2 out and back from the north then road between 11 and 19. Realy pushed for time come the end with 25, 23 and 27 all worth 30 points. Ended up 11:04 over loosing 25 points so worth the pain. 3rd 5 second qquicker would of been 5 points to get ahead of mark. Houli was 10 mins quicker though just loosing the 1 point so well in fron with an impressive ride.

Good fun.

Picked up my national league trophies and a jersey to wear for the next year which will be good.
