Hill Billie,

Yes - there was some very good bagging.  The bagger does, however, have plenty of reasons why he is not up to his usual form, so I take no delight in his early withdrawal.

I wished I could have kept that pace up, but absolute absence of trainign (due to external issues) meant I was lucky to keep my attack going for the short time that I did.  The cheer as I went around in front was funny.

It was good to see the younger kids racing C/D.  I went back (was never goping to figure in the finish) to drag Jonah back on, and then went back to keep the other young fella (not know his name, but he is the younger brother of Tim, the young guy who won)circulating until the bunch caught us, then kept followed him until we pulled out (as required) 3 laps to go.  I am always impressed by the discipline Jonah shows - hard to believe he is 13 - and Tim's younger brother was much the same.
