Vigo Bike Contest - Day 2
Day 2 of Vigo bike contest, story of the day Rain! As predicted a lot of it.There is very little to report on as the big names of the sport have done very few runs. Rather interestingly though, not many people were using cut down screams. The tyre of choice seems to be the Specialized Hillbilly. The track drastically changed from mega dry to torn to pieces in the matter of minutes. All eyes are on tomorrow with today being a write off.
In short, hopefully the pictures say more than I could.

Sorry for the poor journalism, but there is nothing to report. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Cedric on one of his few runs, first one of the day I think
Berny Kerr looking all stylish for the camera
How it's all changed. From typical Spanish dusty roost, to what would normally be found in Britain. Thick sloppy mud!
Washing in the open from a tap, did I mention the facilities weren't too great...
Have to have a shot of Brendan especially as I asked him to push up again
To finish up an atmospheric shot that sums up the day. Stubble from weeks on the road cutting down some tyres for tomorrow's madness

I like the pic with the guy washing himself, almost like Brad Pitt from back in the days. A guy cutting spikes is also great, like Johny Depp from back in the days. Cedric in the berm, all hundred that I've seen before were defo worse, this one brings him into completely new perspective... and Brendan - a classic!
