Racing diary: Cardingmill Canter 1/3/14

Another enjoyable run around Church Stretton, Shropshire.

Really took this one steady, but, in the end, came in only fourteen seconds slower than my fastest time. How does that work?

Link to great short video of some of the race. I make a brief appearance 1:10
