Denise rides hers on the road, didn't she ride it to the Worlds this year?
 
I also used to commute through Bath and Bristol on my Baron X-Low.

The track was a little rough. But a pin meant to be loctited in wasn't; that’s the main cause and is my fault. Too much rushing this week.

I’m honoured  that my name might be associated with unusual bike failures on the track but, given all the talk about suitability of recumbents for the road, I would have preferred the association to have been for developing a bike (albeit an unreliable one) that addresses that issue directly. Ahem: the Switchblade, developed by me, Mark Chillery. 

But, it could just as easily come to refer to anyone falling off twice at the same meeting.

Never before in the history of Human Powered Vehicle racing have there been so many worthy candidates for the "Unfortunate Scotsman" trophy at one event! Big smile

There is a mistake in my vehicle class for Curborough; I am only class O and Mf and not M. I was surprised to see that I am promoted to 3-rd place in the M class, in spite racing with full fairing. Somebody should correct the results.

or the sports and street classes are so open that they should not exist as covered by others
