M&DLCA & East Lancs RC 10’s – 29th April
Reading Time: 4 minutesDue to popular demand (from Jim Duffy as he hates writing reports), I am posting my first TT report of the Year. Jim posted the others because this year I started racing much later than usual due to various holidays and annoying things like work getting in the way of my cycling. The afternoon started […]
WVCC Club 10s – Gents 2-Up – 26th April
Reading Time: < 1 minuteA windy night, but at least it was dry! There was a dark cloud looming in the sky, but it looked as though we’d avoid it bar the odd spot of precipitation. Seven pairs lined up and four solo riders, and thus, this year’s club 10s began… Results below. Next week, the setting of handicaps […]
Macc Wheelers 25 – J2/9
Reading Time: 2 minutesI dont think I thought it through when I entered this event! I came home yesterday from a great 10 Days in Majorca, riding in general, every other day completing 470 miles and over 26000 ft of climbing. It dawned on me, as much as I wanted too, that it would not be a good […]

Withington Wheelers – 25m TT (J2/9)
Reading Time: 4 minutesSo today was the official start of my TT season. Cheshire TT courses are renowed for not being the quickest, so I was surprised when the start sheet came out with an enormous field of 150 names on it, in addition there was a further event before hand for Novice riders which included a further […]
The Curse of The Nova 2up!
Reading Time: 3 minutesSome 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 […]

Manchester Regional Track League
Reading Time: 2 minutesMRTL 3rd February, Another week, another hammering. A deliberately heavy week this week lead to lumpy legs last night, at least that’s my excuse. It makes me jealous to see the teenagers at the track, facebooking, chatting, not paying any attention then getting on their bikes and flying. I on the other hand have to go […]
