Looks like you had a great time, despite the rain. Such a pity to have had to miss this.
Good luck to Damien for a speedy recovery - was the incident spectacular, or just nasty?

Cheers,

Andy

 I was following Damian at the time of his off, it wasn't that spectacular - back end stepped-out on some slippery rock on a mild descent - but it was nasty the way his left arm was wrenched as he hit the deck doh As the day wore on I think his pain was also migrating to his rib/hip area. Ouch. Get well soon matey.

Thanks ,Russell,you did a great job.It may have been persisting down but we were all enjoying the lanes so much,we hardly noticed a bit of damp stuff!

Two full on days that the Essex boys won`t forget in a hurry,having visited all the local favourites,such as Woo Hoo,Devil`s Steps,TallyHo,Washabrook(uphill),The Lane of Pain,to name a few.

It takes a lot of planning to cover that much mileage and number of lanes,so "terrific job",Russ.

Oh,and a bike wash laid on at the end of each day,down by The Watermans.
