Cycling

2up Wessex Vets

Myself and John teamed up again for this one, John bless him suffered a bit on the climbs but we still both put in a reasonable time of 47:08 on this really hilly course.


Stockbridge April 2016

Phil finished 17th in his first "proper" road race of the year, each year these races attract a stronger field and he did really well to get in the front group.
Chapeau!

April owls

Sunday 17th April 2016

Thanks to Clare, we got to get up close and personal with several different types of owl today.

A charming couple have been keeping and displaying these amazing birds for years and we were very lucky to have been invited in to their home. 

Sussex 2up Championship

17th March 2016

Myself and John took part in this event on a very chilly Sunday morning, lumpy and country lanes makes for an interesting event.

20 seconds into our ride, disaster struck, John's left hand tri-bar snapped and was dangling! Fortunately he was able to keep going but not in an aero position, the second lap he managed to get in a better position and our speed increased.

Finishing in 1:10:00 ish was very respectable considering and we were both very happy with that, couple of minutes behind the chuckle brothers, Rob & Darryl.
