Reading Time: 3 minutes Again absolutely massive thanks to this crowd of judges plus the photographers and signers on. Who could have predicted that the weather would have been as bad as last week. Well it wasn’t, it was worse! Also thanks to motorbike Marshall’s and ambulance crew. Despite the atrocious weather we ran two successful races. Six hardy […]

Tour of the Abberleys – An idiot’s exper
Reading Time: 5 minutes For those of you who I have not already bored with the story of how I came to be in this mad event in the first place here goes – Alan Kemp, on my only Sat training ride of the year, smoothly cruised up next to me and in his silky persuasive tones asked if […]
Tim – the master of the bodge repair str

My early morning attempts at bravado had fallen on very suspicious ears. ‘The weather looks fine, we can’t let Derek down, we won’t melt etc etc’ […]
“Ah – poor fools they’re with Kempy”
Reading Time: 2 minutes Well as El had got up at 6 and cycled to work, I felt guilty enough to turn up for my first Saturday training ride. I was wide awake anyway El doesn’t do anything quietly! Six intrepid souls were there, Alan K, Andy P, Kev C, Jon Conboy, Jules and myself. In view of the […]
