Half way through the season now and not a too many podium finishes to report! I’ve had some fun though and done a few interesting events:-
La Cantonale - 100km road race just south of Boulogne, we knew we were in trouble when we turned up in our beat up old estate and parked up next to all the smart looking team cars. And so it was to prove, out the back after less than 20 miles I settled into a nice little group of 10 or so and we had quite a pleasant afternoon riding along closed roads in picturesque countryside before sprinting for 140th place!

Rapha Gentlemans TT - A mad event this one, London-Brighton-London in a team of 5, we chose our own route and took just over 7hours placing us 6th on time. This one hurt a lot, by the time we were riding back through the London suburbs I’d had enough and the sense of humour was failing!!

Nocturne - After the previous weekends epic Brighton ride this was at the other extreme, 40 mins at max with some pretty hairy cornering, the best bit was watching the pros do it twice as fast whilst downing some much needed alcoholic refreshment.
