Wow ! I've just watched the finals from Fort Bill, on the telly. The new sections of the Downhill Course looked really good and the extra length on the 4X made the racing a lot more competitive. But not for Cedric Gracia, who broke his wrist, putting him out of the Downhill.The Mens Junior Downhill gold medal was won by a Scot, Ruaridh Cunningham. Rachel Atherton took away gold in the Senior Womens. Rachels big brother, Gee took a bronze medal in the Senior Mens race.
Peaty had a bad race. Still nursing his dislocated foot, he came off in the upper section of the course and rode most of the track without a saddle.
Still, at the end of the day, despite the rain and wind and mud and midges. I'd rather be there now, facing a possible 8 hour drive home, than sitting here typing this.
Ah well only 2 hours to go and I'm back in work to start another 12 hour shift.
