There's a fair few names on the list I don't know but I think Giles was the fastest regular BMORCer followed closely by Kingy and then Andy?
I think there will be a few of us unfit ones around the 60min +or- a few minutes mark.
Was a good day, I was gone only 5km in, but got my second wind after the helipad and had a pretty quick run in.
The goal was for under 60min, fingers crossed for the official time.
Results are in - 59:04. I'm happy to get under the hr mark.
Now that's the thing... to avoid duplicate posts this race was shared across a couple of sites. Not sure if that's what people want to happen going forward, guess we'll see.
FWIW, there was some stiff competition for BMORC from some NoBMoBers up in the mountains for the day
Me and the missus hit the line a shade over 2hours!..that is success!, first real time i have looked at all the sights, what an awesome day, you were pulling about 3 extra kilo's Ian!..funnily enough i fely as though i might have been able to beat my 56 from 2 years ago!
Is there somewhere to get the official results already?
Can anyone post a link?

Would have come second in cat(40-49) if i hadnt done Elites! and only by 30secs!
I got 59:47, which is great considering I was cruising and having fun. Well as much fun as you can on the dirt road.
Poor Moggio just couldn't get away from me.
Great ride out to guys, really topped the day off hitting the single track.
Where did everyone disappear to after the causeway?
Me and Mog rode up together, then I had a quick chat to a guy on a yellow hardtail that we caught on the climb. I'd lost Mog so continued up to Glenbrook shops thinking he was just ahead of me. I looked around for 5 minutes and couldn't find anyone so I bailed and rode up to the inlaws behind the Lapo.
Chuck was absolutely hilarious, besides"encouraging" me as I was having a real shocker he just kept chatting to everyone on the way. Turned it into a fast social ride.. absolutely no hint of a race face on him.
I'd hate to see what my time is, must be around 70mins, I felt absolutely shocking and all but rolled from the helipad cursing the SS.
Sorry about disappearing at the end, I had a minor second wind up to the station, looked up the train time, bought the ticket and then popped up to the shops and then had to wait nearly an hour for the train. At least ran into JP on the train.
Edit.. sneaked a peak at the time 1:02.33 so not as bad as I thought.
Todd Phillips: 1:46:46.
Now that is cruising!
Nice Todd, bet you spoke to more riders than me.
Ian, I could see you at the top corner, but you'd gone when I got there. Just thought you had to go.
Moggio, I thought you would have to wait a while due to track works. You missed two local BMCC Councillors.

How did you spot that photo of me Chuck? Im barely in it
Grant and I were so dissappointed to find there was no BBQ going at the bottom. Was so looking forward to it! The Gozmele was good but very exspensive!
Definetly needs to be a BBQ next year!
I finished of my race with a ride out to my mums place in Emu Plains. Thanks for the Glenbrook Detour Chuck
I agree the lack of BBQ at the end was a shame, though the Gozleme were nice. Seems there was less of the carnival atmosphere at the end this year than usual.
Next year maybe have a big BMORC BBQ at the end.
