Devil Ride Recce

Gents, great ride today, I think Phil will have another winning route on his hands with that one ;-) Great company, Team kit looks impressive, especially when we were lined out on the A470 on the burn up back to Builth. Some leg burning turns put in by several riders on the aforementioned run into the finish :-)

Testing climbs should have participants visiting “purgatory” :-(

Shorts are the comfiest I’ve ever owned :-)

Team Turn Out !!!

Anyone up for the Trans Cambrian Sportive on the 7th September 2008. This event gets some fantastic reviews and is worthy of a look !! Quite local for us too ;-)

I realise that the Devil ride and the Autumn Epic will be a priority but I feel this may allow for us all to participate as Phil and organisation team will be busy at shop events !!!

Stinger sportive 6/7/08

I know one or two have already entered this one, any more takers ? I realise that a few of our number are Marmotte bashing or Tour de France watching, but of those that are left it would be nice to support the Wyre Forest promotion ;-)

Timing is eveything ! Gran Fondo

Reference above, What time is everyone looking to cross the start line, this coming Sunday ?

Can I suggest about 8am - 8.30am, and everyone throw their hat in the ring, to see what time we decide on ;-)

I realise we will split up early doors, but it will be nice meeting up again, before us lemmings rush over the cliff face  :-)

Hope to see everyone there !!

Road race venture

Hi all,

Just picking your brains, I fancy an experimental venture into road racing ! I have raced as a junior and 1st year senior, however everything was in black and white back in the day ;-( Sportives are keeping me happy and motivated but still tempted by the challenge. LVRC seem the best option for me (old git) and I expect to do some speed work on the turbo ;-( Can anyone please give some “pearls” that may help ?

Don’t bother is not an option I want ;-)
