Point 2 Pinnacle 2011

[El Gordo]

Man, it was tough, but I finally made it. There was many a twist and turn where I was tempted to give up, but how glad am I that I made it through to the end. What an experience!

Freakin' superb race report. Did we expect anything else? [Low chorus of "Noooo".]

I was listening to a tribute to the late Christopher Hitchens today in which someone said, "He was the only man I ever met who could drink an entire bottle of whiskey for lunch, before hammering out a perfect two thousand word article in two hours". Well, admittedly none of us here is a "Hitch", but in terms of productivity under sometimes 'difficult' circumstances, I'd say you run him close.

Have to say, that snap of you on the bus is a pretty good advert for the P2P. You look weirdly normal, in your own... er, context, that is...

Favourite quote might have been from Dan though -- "Thank you Sweder, a great report even by your high standards, and surely a contender for the Harris Tweed Award for most finely spun yarn of the year."

Ha ha! But we love it.

Very well done to all. Great reports, great performances.
