  1. Hello,
    A couple of weeks ago I competed in the Australian National Single Speed
    Championships.
    We knew the competition was going to be tough, there were rumoured to be
    nude people, mental patients, chickens and mormons in the field. We needed
    a competitive edge so we decided to run as a 'team time trial'.

    The results were impressive, we were the fastest team in the event (slowest
    as well).
    A bystander managed to capture this footage:

    (3.6 mb)
    Note the color coordinated outifits and ultra aerodynamic helmet
    attachments.

    Cheers,
    Duncan.

    That's unique and funny. What's disturbing is the amount of riders that
    went around the water. You can see how the trail was widened because of
    that. Sorry to be a trail weeney, but that's just wrong.

    There's a lot of things wrong in that video, but the trail will survive.
    It's built on private land as a dedicated race track. Any damage problems
    will be dealt with by the club.
    Having said that, most people came unstuck trying to go around the water and
    slipping in the mud. The hangovers from the night before didn't make life
    much easier.
