Commonwealth Games Mountain Biking

I had been waiting a whole year for this.
Thanks Gerard H for the tickets.
Having ridden most of the track myself I cannot imagine how hard doing several laps in the scorching heat must have been.
We set up at the top of the rock. There was a mauritian rider who hesitated at the top looking pretty freaked out, when he finally rolled down he managed to smack straight into the tree at the bottom. Pete got it on video. Also saw an Isle of Man rider take a tumble in another section. And a Welshman go off the track snapping the barrier ribbon then he just rode through the ribbon again to get back onto the track.
