LOL Well I was certainly sounding like a wheezing steam engine!

Charming photos Nathaniel! Really capture the atmosphere of the day. Did it rain? I reckon Stuart is kicking off a poncho fashion there... Daniel

Skye (where this film is shot) is stunningly beautiful. When I went the first time the ancient guide book we had referred to a condition called 'Skye fever'; afflicted people would drive people to do strange things by the magical landscape. Good Th…

What a great day! Thank you to Mark and all the team setting up, running, administering and clearing up the CCA Cyclocross event today in Baldock. Results are here. The senior club championship which was a race in two parts. Bryn and John battl…

Lovely! Looking forward to seeing those photographs Tim.

I have a similar offer to Phil. If anyone would like to borrow a CX bike Theo is willing to lend his. Giant in name and dimension; would suit a rider 6ft +/-. Pedals are currently Crank Brother's Eggbeaters, so if this doesn't suit you'd need to e…

The weather was indeed near perfect crucially there was minimal wind. I rode most of the race just behind Mark, so can report on our adventures. For me it was an overall very positive experience but I had to deal with the purgatory of getting th…

Congratulations to both Bryn and Anthony. First cat is a really hard thing to achieve and tops a magnificent season.
-
The course was in fact very good. Less like a mountain bike course and more like a traditional CX course. Naturally being on the side of a hill the climb back to the 'S bends of doom' was an exercise in lactic overload - that was very hard. Some g…

Just for clarity my preference is to do both events but I am unfortunately presently unavailable on the Sunday. I did a double header a couple of weekends ago and it was really great - double the hit. (If I carry on I will sound like am addict!)

The Junior Squad 2011/12 Cyclocross review made the following notes: 3.2 Hoggenberg Very steep. Some heart stopping drops. Really suits a mountain bike. Wide gear ratio. Well liked. 4/5. 3.3 Springfield, Chelmsford Three runs up stairs. Quite…

Great racing Harley, and a great report too. Brilliant. How did that father of yours get on? Daniel

Hi Mark, I'm also happy to course build and marshal. I'll try to bake a cake. Link to the on-line entry HERE Daniel

Well I was on delicate Michelin Mud 2's and didn't puncture...

Stage 5 started gradually with a slightly different neutralized zone than advertised due to road works on the Heads of the Valley Road. A few riders got away from the main bunch, but never for very long. However by the high moorland section of Cefn…

There are many roads to ride...

I think I'll ride the club run on tubs from now on...

Excellent news! Looking forward to the new season. I notice that some of the Central region races are quite close to us, one is even in Letchworth! LINK (Feb 18th)

Tim, if your total luggage capacity can accommodate more than, say, a single orange you should not attempt to cycle up Hardknott and Wrynose! Anyway, having said that some of me admires you for trying.

Great news Harley. Go for it...

...and four riders in the Junior National Series race at Hatherleigh in Devon. Mixed results with Jon suffering with his breathing in the fast start and Dan enduring agony from his injured wrist courtesy of the pot holes. Theo and Cam rode well mak…

Well done Harley. Hog Hill is a pig of a circuit too! Congratulations.
-
We found Geoff and Anne in great form; they were the perfect hosts accepting into their home with open arms. Thank you to you both. Seeing the Tour de France was simply wonderful - the hype was completely justified. Great times sitting on cote de …

...and this from the Cambridge News LINK

No sign of any reports in the UK press yet, but here's a link from a German publication reporting on European news der link

Is that wristband authentic '70s attire? The whole occasion just looks like a 'cracking good event'.
-
Relax! Cambridge is used to lots of bicycles and in any case it's ages away. Isn't it? LOL I am really impressed how Yorkshire (and in particular The Dales) has totally understood what this event means and it seems to me that they will reap rich …

For me nothing has topped the Hardknott/Wrynose combo for toughness. I've not done Honnister. Gospel Pass I found okay and the view was very rewarding. Winnats is hard too. Bwch y Groes is extreme and unforgivingly the straight. Hilarious gradie…

No, it looks like it is an open event but not part of the 18 series league events.
