Holy crap on a stick. Less than a minute from my house, as I ride around to the right of a woman crossing the road on her phone, out from behind the car runs her daughter faster than any kid I've ever seen in my life. I missed turning her into nihonjin no roadkill by about 2 inches and think my heart may still be stopped.

I was stupid. I had a hangover from last night. I read 14:00 as 4pm, so I thought I had loads of time to sleep off my hangover then ride over. At 3pm I saw the start time was 2pm.
I'm glad it turned out well - no rain and plenty of people.

Here's a boring video I put together, with me looking like an idiot at the end.

Hopefully there should be pictures of it shortly. (My arms aren't long enough to take full-on pictures of myself, so we'll have to wait for someone to post them on flickr)

Man, I looked even hotter than I thought. Though Shannon puts my "beard" to shame (hence the quotations).
