So, let’s put our cards on the table, we’re all new to Indie Velo and we love the ‘seat of the pants’ fun we are having putting on these new races on a new platform. It is just amazing how well this embryonic platform works. We have been involved with several platforms over the years and none have been this smooth and glitch free in their early days … take a bow George Gilbert.

As much as we like unpredictable, hap hazard fun, sometimes we have to hold our hands up and explain what happened. Indie Velo launched their teams facility literally hours befor our race and we decided to see how it worked … at the last minute. Two unfortunate side issues occurred which should be sorted for the next race, but we apologise … neither are particularly significant, but we will get them sorted out with Indie Velo’s support. Firstly, the race did not affect your rankings, not a big deal, but we will correct this. Secondly, a bi-product of the way we set up the teams was that some of you were allocated to ‘made-up’ teams … don’t worry we will look at ways around this.
