July 28, 2019

This weekend capped one of the most spectator friendly Tour de France 3 weeks for quite some time, without the typical team Sky/Ineos race shut-downs, and a fantastic set of results for Colombia, France (despite shedding the yellow jersey with the alpine weather) and Slovakia (in the ever present and dynamic form of Peter Sagan).

The weather gods were kind again as we had another big weekend of racing. We may be a multi-talented club taking on varied events, but the London League is where it’s at – and finally we stuck in a massive performance. Orbiting around the edges of the Rumble at the Theme Park were also some […]

Coming back from a long weekend in the mountains, and I find that the weekend I am late in reporting on is also somewhat… long! Well, long in racing distances and achievements. Some, on the club Facebook page, might have thought the weekend was all about Roth. In some ways it was. But in many […]

Race Report W/E 9th June

June 9, 2019

So, a bit of a story of 2 sides this weekend. We had some stellar performances by several of our club. However, somewhat offsetting this was a bit of a poor weekend for hygiene factors such as racing for the club or posting in advance what races our members are doing. A small dip we […]

A hot weekend, and we managed 5 triathlons and a couple of sportives!   Blenheim Triathlon The now regular annual feature of the sprint triathlon races at scenic Blenheim palace was on this weekend.
