    Orwell wheelers assassinate Kennedy shocker, Was Blorg on the grassy knoll?
    Paul Kennedy? - Christ the things they will do to try and take out their foes from Swords. No wonder Bob is paranoid about that lot - I understand why they are called Orwell now - Big Brother is definitely watching us.

    It ain't really I just happen to be aware there seems to be a shed load to punters from Orwell frequenting this forum

    Orwell is the biggest club in the country so it is likely to have a larger number of posters. There was a bit of an influx of Boardsies into Orwell this year probably as guys knew other people already in the club; I joined myself last year as I already knew people in the club from Boards (and from my local bike shop, etc.)

    There is no conspiracy. :pac:

    Loads of people on here brought Focus Cayos, and even more purchased a Planet X.... Lots of posters live within the Orwell catchment area and have ben encouraged to race by other boardsies.
    Lots of posters meet each other regularly for spins, so joining the same club (that they mutually live near) does not constitute some kind of conspiracy, just simple geography. I'm sure some of your mates (who you're not obliged to tell us about the existence of) are in the same club as you may or may not be in...

    I notice that the organisers of Etape Hibernia refer to it as a race in the official emailsm

    This makes me sad.

    The Grand Trophee site refers to the Marmotte as a race too.

    I could care less. :)
