No2 that one:blushing: Well done to you for finishing 3rd in the Tree Surgeon Class. :congrats:

 

I thought well im only halfway so might as well keep going.

 

That and that being heat 2 if i got a dnf would of meant i wouldn't of been able to score in the final.

I saw this, what exactly happened? Did it come loose or did you hit yourself?

 

Good on you for finishing!

You were there and didn't come say hi or were you still in awe of the jazz pony display team....(i was)

 

Well let me explain there was this woodpecker right and he attacked me:001_tongue:

 

 

Or using bike cleats no matter how hard you wind them up they can still release. I had to thread through some long bolts in the end to stop the ability to release.

Nice one for hopping to the top, leg of steel!
