Hi
I had half a mind to go down to this as a spectator/ possible participant;[hah]
i can only get down there on sunday but was thinking of driving with a sharan [ room for my 2 recumbents and maybe more] from south london early sunday morning
just wondered if anyone else was going?
and if anyone could help me out with some kind of chainring guard for my Kingcycle;
apparently I wouldnt be able to race this unless the chainring either has a guard rotating with it or has some kind of shield over the triple chainring completely
any suggestions; chainring [outer] is 54 tooth on a 5 spider stronglight

many thanks

bob

Same here. Fowlmead is reasonably local to me so really I should make an effort to get down to one of these BHPC things. Looks like it was great fun from the pics.

big article on Deal/fowlmead in Sunday Times [accessible by paywall] or hard copy ingear 2 page report and picture of weird looking Obree bike that seems to have no connection between his feet and any chain drive!
