September sportive type stuff

Hi All – a couple of dates for your diary…on the 6th September there is quite a turnout planned for the Trans Cambrian sportive out of Rhayader (won’t be there myself as I will be supporting Molly, Ethan and Jack at the Youth Tour of Wales stage race), and there are still places left.

Plus, we will be doing an informal recce ride of the Autumn Epic route out of Knighton at 9.30 am from the Community Centre on 13th September, with lunch stop in Rhayader – this will mark the restarting of Epic Cycles social ride season, with the fortnightly rides from the shop on Saturdays kicking off a month later, following the Autumn Epic.  All welcome!

Rounding off 2009 ?

As we started the season with a big turn out at the Sundorne Circuit races back in March, any of you up for the Shrewsbury circuit race at Sundorne on Saturday 19th September 2009 to see off the RR season ? :-)

We have over 4 weeks to sort out passes etc and those bikes are not really ready to sit and gather dust for the winter, even if we are !  :-) :-)

Don’t get cross, get ‘cross

Ok, after a July on the bike, in France that saw me cooked better than most things we all eat off a barbeque, plus it is hard to get motivated to plan any RR’s or sportives following the life experiences that were La Marmotte and Etape, I’ve decided to give cyclocross a go this winter !!  Ok so it will be cold, wet and muddy but hopefully fun :-)

The question is, anyone else going to give it a go ??
