In Episode 5 of Season 8 Neil and Matt (and TheGrityKitty) catch up on Round 3 of the National Trophy that came from Torbay and delivered an unexpected fast and dry(ish) course with technical flow. They talk through the tactical racing and even dip into a few stats comparing this year to last year. Neil corrects an error from last show and educates himself on Pearson Bikes and DAS.
They reflect on the grim course from Niel, and talk about how individual features like ‘the Hamme bank’ can affect racing.
After a slight interval to put the cat out, Neil explains how this season is going to be like a classic serial, with 3 volumes. Volume 1 is coming to an end… Volume 2 will be the World Cup starting shortly, and Volume 3… well, listen to find out 😀.
Questions from listeners are ‘answered’ - did you do better in remembering who won Hamme in 2016?
Looking ahead there is a superb GB squad heading to Antwerp including Crosscast regular Xan Crees (Spectra p/b DAS). Good luck all!
