Scott 24 - End of an era
Went down to CBR and did the Scott 24 - just socially. The numbers were down.
My first ever race was Scott 24hr back in 2007 and the size of the event back then was massive. This year it was tiny with most riders appeared to be doing 6 + 6 because the night laps were very lonely.
From 2007 onwards we did Scott 24 every year for a while but have not done it in two or three years so it was quite unexpected to find it so small.

PBM HardRock 6hr - The Debrief
Looking at the nobmob event calendar it looks like I could have been the sole NobMobber at the event so I thought I share a short summary for those who considered it or is considering it for next year.
The race was a 6hr lap race with the usual bunch of categories. Organised by the local club calling themselves tipriders:

This was the first year they organised it but they did so super professionally. Everything worked brilliantly.
