More podium action....Erlestoke 12


After Andy's recent SS Champion podium appearance, the pressure was on for Nick & Rich to deliver at Erlestoke 12 in the 12hr pairs race.

Despite a rather wet Friday, the course was absolutely bone dry on the Saturday, and proved to be a fun-packed mix of rooty, twisty singletrack, with a few sharp climbs thrown in for good measure.

Employing a one-on, one-off tactic,  the laps steadily went by, and despite a number of issues with the timing systems, Nick and Rich ended up on the podium with a third place.

The efforts to level the number of podium appearances with Andy were sadly unsuccessful however, as  earlier on in the day, he'd pulled off yet another podium appearance with a third place in the 6 hour Singlespeed category!
Note - small person not part of third prize package
