Brilliant - well done Jackie!
-
Well done everyone - especially Anna. A great start to the new year to be back on your bike. We were on our way to Snetterton but had to stop just before Duxford with yet another problem with our car. Archie and Evan were gutted. I was quite relieve…

Well done to everyone who raced, it was a great afternoon. I feel I'd better point out (being a completely unbiased co-judge) that in the U12 omnium it was actually Nathan who was awarded first place, Archie 2nd. They were joint first on points so…

Just to clarify - the CCA grass track racing tomorrow (at Small Gains) starts at 2pm. Sign on from 1pm. In addition to the track events there are Go-Ride races for younger riders on free-wheel (normal) bikes. Entries are available on the day so plea…

Shelton, do you need to get bikes from the container? I've got a key so I can open it for you. Iain was talking about going along but not sure if he'll be home in time. What time are you going to be there?
-
That's what Dave & Joe Hadsley and Archie looked liked after today's grass track event at Woodbridge!!
-
Well done to all the CCA riders - you did us proud. As Dave says, the Unknown distance race was a highlight for CCA albeit the bell ringer was clearly biased and waited till the field had caught Iain before he rang the bell! Great to watch though. I…

Hi Will - yes, no worries. I'll be there for 7.30 to get the kettle on. I'll also get in touch with Tim D about the numbers.
-
Well done Jackie - that's an amazing time!!!
-
Hi Kieran, Will is right - women-specific frames seem to be designed based on the 'average woman' shape of having relatively long legs compared to the length of their back - hence shorter top tube. As a tall female with a long back compared to the …

Hi Jane, We used British Cycling's insurance. Still v expensive but it goes by exact make, model, year of bike etc. Lindsey
-
Well done CCA vets!! Great results all round. It was a truely grim day but the kids all seemed to have a good time. Not so sure about the spectators! True grit and determination were definitely the order of the day. It's been a brilliant season f…

Good news. Evan will be there and happy to be the third member of the u10s team if needed. Equally he'd be fine if someone else wants to ride in his place. Let me know. The plan so far for the u12 team is Sam Daniels, Freddie Cook and Archie F . …
-
Definitely a long way, especially to get there in time for the kids races starting at 10am. That said, it was a great event and the Ashwell U12 lads again showed the benefits of the Wednesday night training - exemplary full-speed 'running dismount /…
-
Sounds grim - and a shame it messed up your races. That said, it's a huge thing to have been selected to ride for the region - well done!!
-
Brilliant - well done Jackie!!
-
I'd echo the comments above but for your first race it really doesn't matter about the mount / dismount stuff ... unless you're in it to win? I started cyclocross last year and for the first 2 races couldn't even do a moving dismount never mind hav…

The photo of Daniel did make us laugh! Great photos Nathaniel - you've got a real talent. Lindsey
-
Mark, We're also happy to help. Lindsey
-
Hi - we have a 24 inch wheel blue Isla bike available but it is a Beinn not a Luath. Whisper me if you're interested. Lindsey
-
Great news Richard. Best wishes for a speedy recovery so you can get back to speedy racing! Take care, Lindsey
-
Hi Sallie I'll bake some cakes & try to find a raffle prize. Hopefully I can help on the day but not quite sure if I can make it yet. I'll try to confirm by Thursday. L
-
Jackie and Adam - hope you both get better soon. I didn't hear what injuries Adam has but Jackie has some very bruised (possibly fractured) ribs & managed to crack her helmet when she fell. It must have been a nasty one. In typical Jackie fashio…
-
Hi Tim, Can you add iain to the reserve list pls? He's away just now but mentioned that he was thinking of doing it again, L
-
Wow - well done Harley!!
-
We've got ours too - turns out it is under 12's who are free so even better.
-
Amazing ride from Cam and also from Jackie! That's a new women's course record by almost a minute I think!? Lindsey
-
Hi Carmelo Presuming Iain got a place in the race (?), I can help but will have the boys with me so I'd need to marshall somewhere where there's enough space for them to be off the road. Lindsey
-
Sorry to let the CCA ladies down but I'm ruled out for at least a month with a wrist problem. Doctors orders - no cycling - gutted. Let's hope mixed teams are allowed!
-
Hi Daniel, yes, I'm fine. Tim's write-up makes it sound more serious than it was - more of a 'bash' than a 'smash' on the handlebars when I came off. Not a very impressive bruise given how sore it was - certainly not enough to get much sympathy! I d…
