Fat Buddha ... IMFL 11:54:34 ... IMA 13:26:56 faster at IMFL by 01:32:22!! Barlos ... IMFL 14:48:48 ... IMA 15:47:13 faster at IMFL by 00:58:25 Debbo ... IMFL 13:13:01 ... IMA 14:11:05 faster at IMFL by 00:58:04 Swoosh ... IMFL 12:58:24 ... IMA 13:49:45 faster at IMFL by 00:51:21 Pebble ... IMFL 12:40:26 ... IMA 13:23:15 faster at IMFL by 00:42:49
And for KK, the words of chumawhumba: I got knocked down, but I get up again... but then it also does go on to say something about lager and whisky drinks too... hope the other pirates track KK and get him a beer or two.
'Please send thanks to all who followed the pirate progress - it would have been better if it was on the ground but still good to know people were rooting for us back home. And an hour extra in bed as well - clocks wentback this morning! Beers later - yeeeehaaaaa!'
And in response to my 'buy KK some pies' he replied: 'will get him started on beer!'
Thanks for all the support guys, but as FB says, the pirate support on the ground was sorely missed. I saw Barlos's mum 3 times on the course and that was it : -(
I'm going out for a quick spin on my bike in a little while, except it seems to have a flat tyre.
I can retire now as my ambition was to finish in the top half of my age group. 28/63 yesterday as opposed to 21/21 in Germany. Just shows the quality of the field here is pants!

Well done IMp for the stirling reporting!

Morning all,

Feel for KK, and hope he is feeling much better this morning.

Wow! Superb Pirating!
Great reporting too from JD!

Dermott, FB in the top 50 of their age group.
sorry you had a rough time kk - better luck next time.
amazing performances from the others - if they keep on improving at this rate - they will all qualify for kona some time next year !
i am so impressed with you all - great stuff - enjoy the rest of your stay !
I think I'll wait a bit to send Iron Bryan a message!
Do we know how kk is?

We'll have to find KK first in order to tell him about the BBQ though....
Nice one Wifey!
Cannot believe you are goin out on yer bike tho ... what have they turned you into!
Well done to all the piratey finishers. Fantastic result from BtS.

Was there anyone there talking piccies?
Great results guys.
Tough on KK but I'm sure he'll be back for seconds
