Firstly, thank you to all who set off on Sat morning. In my mind, everyone who did that is a winner because from there on in, what happens isn't always entirely down to you and all the prep' and resolve in the world might not be enough to overcome what life's decided to dish out
A few people asked me whether this would be the final BB200. The answer to that is ... if people still want to come, then it will continue. The weird thing is, the BB200 really doesn't feel like 'our' event or 'my' event but very much 'your' event. It's become something that belongs to the riders, so while those riders exist, it does too.
Some folk also asked about the decision to make it invitational. Well, I feel completely justified in that given that the only stress I received was by way of an uncooperative circuit breaker on Sun morning. At no point was I worried about anyone riding and I never felt that I had to question anybodies ability to deal with whatever circumstances they found themselves in ... that peace of mind was the aim in making it invitational.
On a more practical note. I have 2 items of lost property, so if you're short of a small saddle bag or an Exposure battery, let me know and I'll reunite you.
Lastly, a very big thank you to Dee. I always say that nothing would happen without her because it's true.
As you were and well done all.
