Lovely day and plenty of racing to watch: right from nippers to national level.

Would have liked to have gone but it clashed with the three peaks, hope everyone who went had a good time.

I did - was a good day actually, weather stayed nice, lots of bike porn about, little kids that were going a lot faster than I could and, best of all, we ended up in the vip area and got permission from a very nice policeman to raid the Mayor's buffet while the grumpy lady in grey that was guarding it was not watching...

All went a bit pearshaped tho when we got home and found my friend's cat unable to walk in the neighbours garden, rushed her to emergency vet, but she ended up being PTS
