Reading Time: 5 minutes Here we are again, same course (Siddington), just a different name over the door, this time Macclesfield Wheelers. My day didn’t start too good.

Reading Time: 3 minutes The curtain came down on the series tonight, and what a fantastic series it has been, well done to all the organisers, very safe and very well run as usual.

Reading Time: 2 minutes I dont think I thought it through when I entered this event!

The Curse of The Nova 2up!
Reading Time: 3 minutes Some of you may recall my previous experience of this event when I last rode it 3 years with Dave Fearon, my tri bar fell out, so I spent much if the ride with it bouncing off the front wheel. I started the morning off by actually getting my TT bike down for the first […]

Long Run – The No Car Cafe
Reading Time: 3 minutes Well, the plan was to go over to Tea on the Green at Chinley as a precursor to next weeks Wild Wales Challange, however, I had already suspected that Tea on the Green may not be large enough with everyone making a last ditch effort to get miles and hills in the legs, so I […]
