Presenatation & Biathlon Wrap up. part 1.

Thursday saw the annual HuRTS presentation held at the 'Tilbury Hotel but not before a trusty and hardy few turned up for the unofficial Biathlon down at the A.B.C Pool. No sign of High, Kanser, Italian Stallion Durante( who was already at 'Harry's Cafe on his 5th hot dog) or Tommy H who simply refused to show after been rocked by news that No Armbands were allowed. We did however get a ringer in with Andy Skippy Heyden rocking up and then rorting the handicap to go off scratch, with Charlie having to find 4 and a half minutes somewhere to catch him.
Good hit out for the guys with Heydo's crossing the line first, with Woker (Charlie's mate) 2nd and Enda gettign on the podium with his 3rd spot only to be disqualified for wearing a swimsuit can you believe? Hardman J.C was later D.Qed as well after a Japanese tourist fired in a complaint that he was seen running past the Art Gallery with his ' Town Halls' for all to see.
Times were
Charlie 18.29
Travis   18.55
Enda     18.57 (DQed)
Pete W  19.13
Richie P 19.48
Angus     20.01
John C    20.33
Woker    20.37
Heyden   20.52

We will be having one more race at the end of the race season sometime in March when i suspect Tom will be out for revenge from earlier in the year?

Just getting a few swim tips from our mate Geoff Huegill, with Charlie, Travis, Peter and Richie Palmer.

Enda coming out of the pool, only to be DQed later for the use of an illegal swimsuit.

Not really sure what Richie P was doing here, with Travis and Peter Walker.

Hardman J.C moments before he was to give the local tourists a new sight.

Cheers
Presentation wrap up to follow later - just getting all the pics of Kanser cleaned up :)

  4. Also in that same section of the rules - never in any circumstances are speedos allowed outside the pool area! There are children around for goodness sake.
    That's a crime punishable by death in some US states. JF
