How much work is involved in getting a race bike upto scratch

How often do you take your bike in for a service / clean / repair and then are unhappy about a small detail
We all too often jump on the high horse about things when in the greater scheme of things, they are not that important

There is along season ahead and both man and machine will have to be in top shape to withstand the rigors of competitive racing

It will be interesting to see how the machines perform and how issues are dealt with, problems (hopefully as little as possible) are traced and resolved and how the bikes stand upto a tough season with committed riders.

Currently we are dealing with mud and the problems that brings. As the season unfolds, we move into Winter and a whole new ball game.

Next one is in Ermelo in 2 weeks time
