See this? That's a leaderboard, that is, featuring #78 which is me. I think most everyone else broke down, fell off or got waterlogged. Conditions were less than perfect to put it mildly... I've never seen rain like it in a race. Waved yellows absolutely everywhere, inches deep standing water in places.

Commiserations to the breakdowns, get well soons to the fallers and alas condolences to the family and friends of Richard Bartlett, Newcomer #18. It's hard to lose any fellow racer, but it's especially tough when it's a newcomer.

Still an' all, that's a leaderboard, that is. 600cc Junior race tomorrow, weather permitting. I suggest y'all take a good look at this photo, as I doubt very much whether #57 will feature here!
