Loving the flexibility of 9 ANY riders in the ToB comp.

As I’ve mentioned before in previous comments, you’ve got to stick to a points budget, so can’t see any harm in it.

I also like this. But it can’t really be classed as a “trial run” because of the lack of stars. If the race had quite alot of stars. I think it would be much harder to pick riders.

Although I like it. Would like to try it in a race with many more stars.

Ah the letter to Hitler.
Yes
Ah the letter to Hitler.

Yes he was congratulating him on the annexation. These days our governments just do that on our behalf’s……..

Same difference if you look at it on face value. BUT, then you find out what the Nazi’s did…..etc. Not good being a pro Nazi in those days.

Rockall was “annexed” in 1955 😉

The West Bank was annexed by Jordan in 1950 I believe. The UK was one of very few countries to class it as part of Jordan?

So yes in hindsight it looks bad for the letter congratulating Hitler. But back in 1939 the Holocaust that was beginning was unknown to many 😕

Supported the Nazis?? Thats a new one on me

Supported Oswald Mosley and his British Union of Fascists yes….Nazis? Since when 😕

Well lucky I was just round
Well lucky I was just round the corner from my house. Was just going to go about a mile and back on the long straight we have.

I thought I had just burst the tube, so rolled home to change it rather than standing on the road side. Ended up I ripped the tyre and tube. Ripped my camera from its mount and its screw on hold has now been stripped. Then slightly buckled my wheel. Not a huge amount of damage. Just tightened a couple of spokes and replace the rest.

Not the greatest video, I film in time lapse, but for some reason they have faded into each other through editing. Must learn the program better 😉
