Another great video, its great watching these back after being in the thick of things and seeing some different angles. It was good to race a new circuit but there was serious amounts of debris flying around, definitely glad of the helmet & glasses.
Yea I really enjoyed the circuit. Lucky I had glasses on though, as one piece of flint smashed right into them and I thought wow that would have hurt! Also good to still see you at races. You was at my very first set of races at Abingdon 2022 in Jan Winter Series. I’m always happy to be on your wheel with your tall draft 😆
Was you in that group of 4 riders at the end of video who I couldn’t close down? Yes I have one from Castle Combe 🫡 How did you do at Swindon, by the sounds of it you got swallowed up???
I was number 57 in this race, was sitting on the front of your group closing the gap just before you called Tom through! 29th in the end after getting swallowed and using most of my energy in a few breaks as well! Good fun though
I was also up the road with Chan in that early 3 man break! Very difficult to stay away through the solar panels especially with Swindon chasing everything back
@@georgewhitlock1296 ye that solar panel area was brutal. When Chan went up on a solo bridge or attack I was like 🫣😂 So basically you was the lead out for the leadout 😂 I couldn’t roll upto you though 🤦♂️ You were where I needed to be
Yep I was and as a solo rider it was a bad move! Those things happen though when everyone is racing a new circuit, no one really knows what is happening 😂
@@michaelgraycycling I'm down South, and Velo Venta used to hold races at Winchester Park and Ride. Not sure they've had any this year. The Oxford or near to it stuff is it a bit far for me
@@dba1222 haha yes. I don’t tend to use Twitter as I find myself biting on boxing threads (that’s my main sport that I follow) 😆. I don’t tend to use Facebook to much either but I end up enjoying cycling reels on Instagram and I understand there DM system a better for when racers reach out 😄
@@dba1222 also yea I believe they are hosting races. I saw some advertised on BC. I have entered them but Gennady from the previous video is planning on entering them. Where abouts are you from?

@@michaelgraycycling 😆 thought there was quite a bit of my rear end action early on - glad to be of assistance 😆
Another great video Michael. Enjoying your documentary. Keep them coming! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Justin. 🙏 Hope you’re enjoying the bank holidays?
Glad to see you got your groove back! Kudos on a great race!
Yea has taken a couple of months but getting there again now slowly but surely
Really cool video, Michael and a super job for the team!
Yea was great to get another of couple top 10s for us! You’re going to be pinging for Banbury after the mountains you been on!
Well done , I will keep a eye out for you lads future races 👍
Marked men 😆 I wouldn’t always trust our wheels though, definitely a work in progress!
@@michaelgraycycling I look forward to the Combe race then , I think I saw you there
Great racing Michael! I ended up leading the whole pack out which was a big mistake. Looking forward to the Castle Combe video if you are doing one

Hi Michael, are you on Twitter?
I am but I can’t say I use it at all to be fair. You mainly use Twitter?

@@michaelgraycycling I'll have to check BC. Their website doesn't appear to be updated. I'm in Fareham so it's kind of the closest thing.
My fault 🫡 , should definitely be in kit 🙏
