Life of a DN1 Espoir: April 2008

http://alicarr.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Life of a DN1 Espoir. Tuesday, 29 April 2008. What do I do? I don’t speak French, what if he starts talking to me? What do I say? 8217; But I remained calm and collected for the flurry of words that would signal the start and end of the conversation. But no, he spoke and I recognised a few of the words but wasn’t thinking to put them together. So I looked at him with a questioning face and asked “Pardon? Well the answer to this question is who knows? After feeling cramped on my bike, this week I’m ...

Life of a DN1 Espoir: It's back Baby!

http://alicarr.blogspot.com/2009/06/its-back-baby.html

Life of a DN1 Espoir. Sunday, 14 June 2009. 2 months it’s been since my last posting, a whole 2 months. Time flies when you’re having fun so I must have been having a whole load of fun. My excuses for not posting are as follows:. 1: I got lazy. 2: I had no internet. 3: I got lazy. 2 months of not saying anything leaves you with a lot to talk about, so, without further ado, let’s find out what I’ve been up to. Here we are: http:/ cyclistscookbook.blogspot.com/. Now for something completely different.

Life of a DN1 Espoir. Wednesday, 7 January 2009. A New Years Update. It was only on the 2. Last but not least, as I won’t be funded next year again, to raise some capital I am organising a reliability ride in conjunction with one of my local pubs the Red Lion Inn. It will be a nice scenic and mainly flat but challenging 60 mile route around Staffordshire and Shropshire. Entry will cost £5 and for that you will get a pint of beer or a bacon Sandwich, happy days. Wednesday, January 07, 2009.

Life of a DN1 Espoir: June 2008

Life of a DN1 Espoir. Tuesday, 24 June 2008. Position and about 14. Overall. I rolled round on my recovery lap and got to the finish to see the DS having a go at one of the riders, it wasn’t good news. Apparently the break had split in two with only one of our guys up front, the resident none sprinter Mathieu. He had duly finished 2. In a race that we should have owned easily, but sometimes that’s how it goes, it was a frosty drive back anyway. Until the next time,. Tuesday, June 24, 2008. 16:34: mechani...

The Merckx Files: March 2009

http://theademerckxfiles.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, 29 March 2009. Surrey League Crowhurst 2/3 Road Race. So whats the plan then", asked Sylv. "Er. how about we stay up front and see what happens", I replied, ever so wisely ;-) Well that's the short version. I probably rambled on about breakaways and keeping an eye on London Dynamos and that ex-rower bloke but hey, whatever! Now have you ever raced and said to yourself I'm gonna move up on the next lap and this maneovere seems to become a real long drawn out and very fatiguing affair? To counter t...
