I vote for Junkie because im on his team
Go Junkie

Don

LOL... I'll bet there are a few people insulted by the (short) length of that list.

I note not many of your contenders partake in hot laps. They must be too shy

as i recon a bottle of wine or a six pack should be the prize! HANG ON! that would be me fighting the hardest for the loot!

That list is bang on (if only Irish Ray was here though). There are a couple of omissions though (both work for bike shops).

To be honest I couldn't call that, it hurts my brain to think about it..... can't wait to find out.

EDIT: It's been almost an hour and I'm still too scared to vote

last year that recorded negative official lap times, my best was about 10 minutes. Got to love end of daylight savings when your racing the clock. Not sure if it will happen again this year though.

My money would be on Gaz but I know he'll rip a tire side wall on one of the many sharp edge rocks that litter those trails and with no pump to fix it he will be out for a long walk. Pikey gets my money

Got to put my vote down for Gazza, especialy on the new ride.

what kind of idiot goes out on a cross country lap without a spare tube and air?

but I had to vote for Supagav, 29er's R U U U U U L E !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There wont be much in it.

Gav gets the vote but I wouldnt put it past Gazza to put in the fastest lap and Steve was right there on the weekend.

It was hard to choose who to put in the poll. I actually looked at who had ticked the star to say they were going in the first place.
How about we make it a bit more interesting though, drink a can of beer before the start of the lap then GO.
it sounds like great SS training to me. Gazza and Pikey will be up for this foresure. Now to try and find some speights beer... (Im pretty sure this is what we will be drinking for world SS champs) or maybe Bernd has a bottle or 2 of home brew to donate?

Man, with that rule I'm so not voting for Junkie

But only if hey drinks Cider

you need!!!!!!
I can/will donate a Bier or 2 for this if needed! I have a case of German Style Weissbier!!! I will take it down there. ..(so the snorrrriiinnng foorrty's can get a little of track!)
I have made this one for the Mont, it is very, very nice. Lot's and lots of yeast and wheat in it!! Pikey will love it!
24 x 345ml bottles.......

If that rule is implemented, I wouldn't complete my first lap!

Having never actually ridden Sparrow coupled with my frat house ability to drink, I could see myself making a detour off course and making like Rob (of old hopefully) mid-lap...

go pikey go!

After my effort today on a road bike completing the "Loop the Lake"
You should all be very very scared

Yes... be scared!

Pikey turns Gazza?

I do believe that Steve01 has the fastest 'honest' (not first) official lap with a 52:45. Well done Steve!

Other contenders in this poll:

Supagav - 54:07
Gazza - 54:25
AR Junkie - 57:56
Pikey - 1:04:29

To see Pikey keeping these guys honest.

Good Work Steve. The second lap should always be the quickest due to little or no traffic. Good to see you have still got a bit of speed left in the legs after the CCOMTB club round last week.

Hey, I'm not too far off those times...See you next year!

I even impressed myself......But being the manager of a winning 40+ mixed team puts a lot of pressure on oneself to perform at there best and I believed I did just that......thoughts do wonder into my head though that as I didn't have an "off" maybe I wasn't trying hard enough?????

Something to ponder for the next 24hr.

Congrats everyone that competed

Pikey

I might take insult at that comment. I have emailed the organisers and asked them to remove me from the list, better be careful what you say Rob.

EDIT 2.06pm

Yep I stuffed up and jumped the transition of my team mate by 18mins, so even thou the results say I did a good lap - I didn't. Long but funny story. Apologies Rob.

Not only quickest lap but 2nd quickest as well,racing the young guys of nobmob is like taking candy from a baby, too easy
I'm betting next event they will be out to make me eat my words

yeah I chose to race with just one gear to let you have your glory old man

you'll be eating your words and my dust in the next race mate!

There is another old guy coming into form in the near future enjoy the spotlight while it lasts.

the more the merrier!

on my team.... but as the 'elder' of the bunch wasn't toooo unhappy with a 56:45 lap.
I guess the the good thing is I don't recon I've peaked yet. There still a bit of corner speed I can squeeze out and do better in the future!
W.

was the only person from all those I knew competing that passed me the whole weekend and he did so so fast I wasn't sure who it was that said hello. Next year I'll change my vote from Pikey - team captain - had to

Imagine what time I could get if I wasn't drinking till 2:30am on the Friday night before the Mont AND I did some training?????

Now your scared

Pikey

Well done to the others as well.
Top race.

Cheers
Evan
