An impressive performance sees the SRM take the lead, they'll be hard to beat agian this month: http://www.gpsteamchallenge.com/index.php

All my best efforts at taking SlowBoat out of the challenged failed when he hung on at my sabotage through the mud in my 4wd while he was riding on my tow-bar Next time I get an oppurtunity to take him out I will not fail[}:)]

I thought we did a reasonable job today, with Elmo posting an impressive 30kt NM, and decrepit backing him up with a 27 kt NM, and some reasonable 2sec and 10 sec, even our hour went up, and then comes along.......

Congrats to Elmo on the 30k NM!!

And Decrepit on the 23k (almost) alpha.

I was at Melville yesterday and saw Slowboat in action...he was smokin'.

Makes you realise what a huge gulf there is between the average punter (i.e. me) and the elite crew...plenty of room for improvement.

Pointman, you didn't look too shabby yourself a 29.5PB 2 second and a NM 27PB
Who was the big guy who came cumagutza and hurt his back?

Thanks Mino, I was quite pleased with myself .

Didn't catch the big fella's name who hurt his back, but we both got nailed by the same squall.

I gather you were at Melville yesterday also? What were you riding? I'll have to introduce myself next time I see you, I have yet to meet in person most of the crew who post in here.

Sorry to here about you with the bug, but on the up side it will slow you down our mere mortal speeds

39knots that equates roughly to a foot and a half of snot streaming out the back
