There were some dodgy bike handling skills on show, but if people have not raced crits then their skills will be sub par.

Agreed.
However, the young gun who charged at me early in the F grade race has plenty of crit experience and he well knows that he has plenty of bike skill ability. In fact, he also cut in front of me in a U-turn in a HD crit last year, also, early in the race.
He also knows that the chances of his "grandmother" beating him in any race is rather remote. So I don't know why he chose to do this.
Thank you to the adult riders who rightly chastised him immediately.
The younger riders need to keep in mind that older riders don't bounce. Some of us can't just take a few days off for an
avoidable accident. As the oldest female crit rider in the Hunter, I don't expect overly aggressive riding from my fellow competitors.
On a brighter note, it was great to have a real F grade crit race, although the field was a little too large for an older woman racing alongside a lot of fast but generally less experienced boys.
