Only asked as there were none on NHCA website plus you might have had one of me leaving - cos as ex-rider I can sneek down to the bottom of the hill with the riders (dunno why as walked up to opposite where the photos were taken to watch).
Trust you had a dry ride home, I left after the 2nd class run & had torrential rain from Wadebridge to home.

Was you the guy who was next to the female marshal ?? you know, the old man , I was with the other old man the opposite side if thats where you were

Nope we even went via torrington on the way back for a sarny at the common, was a bit windy but no rain

Can't remember female marshall but was talking to Peter Jeffery who was marshalling the crossing - I was the 38 yr old 'old man' wearing Dainese Leathers with a Red Waterproof coat over the top.

Only watched one run on that bend (don't like it there as have landed in the same spot me-self before!) before wandering down the hill a little further. Rode up the hill just after the 2nd timed runs before they came back down.

Torrington - thats got the car park at the end of the village with toilets & overlooks the moor - we used to stop there for a route check on the London Lands End trial at 2-3o'clock Easter saturday morning - families would sit outside at night & watch the bikes & cars go through!!

yeah, not a lot happens in Torrington - they have to take their excitement where they can get it
