As of Saturday I’ve a new p.b. of 2 mins 36 secs and a lovely new trophy to add to the mantlepiece as I took the ladies’ title for the second time in the bike bog champs held in Llanwrtyd Wells, Wales. This is such a good event, the atmosphere was amazing and the organisation brilliant. I intend to go every year now to try and retain my title.

Bring on 2011.. I miss you speedo clad sport stars.

About this blog

The vast majority of posts in this blog are about quirky & eccentric competitions & festivals. I started it in 2006 in France with a competition I’ll never forget. Where contestants battle it out to become the World Champion Pig Squeeler, or ‘Cri du Cochon’. I had little knowledge back then of quite how far my pursuit of these kind of events would lead me. I’ve travelled all over Britain (and occasionally further afield) to capture our curiosities and quirks. There’s nothing uniquely eccentric about the British, you’ll find people all over the world up to all sorts of weird and wonderful activities, but we do have a remarkable capacity to embrace the madness. ‘A Brit Different’ is the book that was born from it, my labour of love! So what next? There’s always something interesting going on, so watch this space, only time will tell!
