Entries opened 30 minutes ago and there are already 350 registered riders including 130+ Brits... Act fast if you plan to race there this summer. Mark F

The Under 12 race was another good one - the commentator got so excited that he broke his PA system apparently The outcome was that Archie took his first ever Eastern League win, just ahead of James in second place. With Freddie and Sam just behind…

If it's any use as a donor bike I'm selling this Schwinn Moab MTB. 26" wheels, Good kit (Ritchey, SRAM X7/9 9 speed, etc). Looks great and never damaged, but most bearings need regreasing or replacing, brakes need new pads, forks need a service. £20…

@mwyer - yes please to the souvenir programme Mark. Thanks, Mark F

Challenge Limus.

I was at the National Trophy for work reasons and it was fantastic to see all of the CCA riders in action. It was a very tough day. A few interesting snippets from talking to the coach who looks after the highly successful Paul Milnes Cycles squad i…

The course used for the U10 and U12 races was very good, with enough technical features to give the riders a challenge without making it too difficult for the youngest riders or novices. There were relatively few overtaking opportunities once riders …

Sold.

I'll be bringing the overshoes to the Snetterton CX on Sunday if anyone wants them. It's going to be 4 degrees C so your U10 or U12 might be glad of them... Mark F

All that Wednesday night start practice at Knights Templar pays off. This photo was taken right at the start of the Under 12 race, with all four CCA riders leading the charge.

Scott, I've just whispered you. Mark F

Hi Alistair - I've whispered you a message. Mark F

The Under 12 race was a little more technical than usual

This is how national Under 16 champion Dan Tulett and equally talented Under 14 brother Ben tackled the steps yesterday at Davy Down: http://youtu.be/_nKdU_hJnoo The clips that look speeded up are actually playing at normal speed... Mark F

Last call for any interest from CCA Youth U14/U16s. Mark F P.S. Date change: the info & practical session at Writtle College will be on Friday morning 31st October (i.e. during half term) not Saturday 18th October.

Not sure, but a lap takes four or five minutes.

No Sally, not unless it sells at an event today. Just whisper me if interested. Mark

I'll probably bring the bike to the Baldock cyclocross event this Saturday if anyone wants to see it. Mark F

Phil - I've whispered you my email address.

Hi Phil, sure -I'll whisper you my details and we can make the arrangements. Mark F

Plus, CCA was the second highest scoring club/team today, and now lies second overall: http://easterncross.org.uk/placings14-15-c.htm

I still have this Miche track chainset for sale which would put the chain in the right position for use with a fixed sprocket on a rear hub. If you're interested, just let me know. Mark F

The grass always seems greener on the other side, so I haven't mentioned this before because I know what a hassle it can be (for the kit co-ordinator especially) to change supplier. However, I buy kit for Youth Cycle Sport from Champion System - you …

As Stuart says, a great CCA turn-out on Saturday - well done to everyone who raced, and best wishes for quick recoveries to Jackie & Adam. Results at: http://easterncross.org.uk/race14-15-1.htm Various race videos by John Swindells at http://sw…

I think they've made a very good job of it. I tried to organise a CCA youth ride there for the older kids earlier in the summer (including free ice cream for the kids and free coffee for parents) but I didn't get a single reply. I know the Colchester…
