  • 12616 – Mudlarks Summer Breeze 100km Charity Ride

    I started soon after 08:30 and before long it was raining.  With some confusion with the route, and the route markers, I got to Tewin and started to retrace my steps when I came across someone in the same state of confusion as myself (and … more ->

  • 11616 – Herts Wheelers 200km Audax

    Did this as a Helper’s Ride after the main event.  Met up with Alex after 10km and we remained together until the thought of domestic duties made him stop as we passed nearby his house (140kms).  It took a bit longer than I expected but … more ->

  • 04616 – Shaftesbury CC (Middlemarkers). E2/25

    Thought I’d dip my toes back into the murky world of open TT’s.  With about 140 entries, this event is only available to those slower than 57:00 mins.  Having not done any speed training I wasn’t expecting much – and I didn’t get much.  On … more ->

  • 28516 – Three Steps to Severn 600km Audax

    After a sleepless Friday night in a Macclesfield hotel, I got up at 04:00 and left at 05:00 for an 06:00 start two miles away.  A wind assisted journey through Prees, Newtown (migraine), Llandrindod Wells, Builth Wells to Llandovery at 228kms.  Was watching the storm … more ->

  • 15516 – Norfolk Special 200km Audax

    I’ve never ducked a hilly audax, but it was nice to finally get a flatty albeit in Norfolk.  Starting at Lound (Gt Yarmouth) I met up with Alex and we made our way to Stiffkey over the top of Norwich via Caistor and Coltishall and … more ->

  • 08516 – Hop Garden 200km Audax

    At last I finally managed to start a ride from Meopham (Kent), although sadly I still can’t pronounce it!  Another surprise was to find that I actually knew some of the other riders (outside of HW).  GrahamK turned up, though I was unable to keep … more ->

  • 24416 – 29eme Ronde Brayonne Cyclo 100km Audax

    Early on Saturday morning I drove down to Newhaven in order to catch the 10:00 ferry to Dieppe.  I got through the passport control and immediately met up with Alex, Barry & StevieG.  They had ridden down the day before and stayed at a Youth … more ->

  • 16416 – Heart of England 300km Audax

    Had I, or most of the other entrants, known of the true horrors awaiting us up the road then we would not have started.  So the ride kicked off at 06:00 from Cirencester in a very light drizzle and headed north to Alcester.  About halfway … more ->

  • 10416 – Two Battles 200km Audax

    A stupid o’clock start got me to Tamworth by 07:30 for an 08:00 KO.  A speedy 50 kms to Wistow was followed by a not so speedy 50kms to Upper Stow.  A welcome break at the half way point as it had got fairly lumpy … more ->

  • 03416 – Stevenage Start of Summertime 115km Audax

    Only looked as if there were two HW riders in this, myself and SteveWh.  As yesterday it was great cycling weather.  Started about 10:35 and soon got to Thaxted via Reed.  Slowed down a bit on the return as I was navigating for another couple … more ->
