Pedal Spanner: November 2008
http://pedalspanner.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 November 2008. As the days get colder I find myself drifting into Spring 09. 2008 was a resurgence for me, perhaps the best cycle fitness I have ever had - only contested by the early 000's when I raced a mtb season in Colorado. I was cruising round Cyclesport.org. In work on Friday trying to find events that CycleSurgery. Can be involved with, a series to back etc and it got me thinking of my personal agenda. I also want to do some mtb stuff, and Etape Caledonia. We can do our own event such ...

Tuesday, 7 July 2009. 5/7 Omega Thruxton Circuits. A large field lined up at Thruxton today of approx 80 riders, saw plenty of now familiar faces in the bunch.

Pedal Spanner: September 2008
http://pedalspanner.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 September 2008. South Downs Charity Ride. I’ve just spent the last 4 days in Wales, visiting my Dad who’s recently been admitted to Shrewsbury hospital. He’s not been too good lately, suffering from a severe infection which has left him weak and disorientated. At 86 years old and suffering from Diabetes these infections take their toll, but seeing him yesterday before I left for Brighton he was almost unrecognisable from last week. Reading his early years memoirs. I’m aiming to raise ...

Pedal Spanner: February 2011
http://pedalspanner.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 1 February 2011. Well it’s been a while. in fact, I'm not sure 20 months off the bike can be described as 'a while' even. It’s been an Eternity. How much has changed since the summer of 2009 other than the growing amount of dust on my impulsively bought collection of bikes I wonder. For the Mitre, as far as I can gather from their excellent new blog http:/ www.mitreracing.co.uk. That has been a contributing factor in getting me off my arse. I didn’t get on my Trek again that year and didn&...

Pedal Spanner: March 2009
http://pedalspanner.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 23 March 2009. Thruxton 4th Cat Race (22/3). 2 laps to go and 3 strong guys made it away. The rest of the bunch would now be playing for the last 6 point placings. Penultimate lap I manuevered into the front 10 alongside Morgan, who was looking pretty comfortable. This time I managed to bury the urge and kept back behind wheels. Heart rate bobling around threshold. Last lap. That'll be my last Thruxton and last race for a while, this weekend I'm going to Poland for the World Track Championships w...
