British Time Trial Championships 2009

These pictures come courtesy with kind permission of Sarah Brooke, one of the countries most renowned cycling photographers. We are really impressed by Sarah's clean, crisp and excellent capture of the sport in action. These images (below!! that's not us to the right obviously :0) were taken at the British Time Trial Championships held in September 2009 at Botolph Clayton in Buckinghamshire. Check out Sarah's website for hundreds if not thousands of images. Also, we'd like to use this news blog to help promote Sarah's new 2010 calendar. ALL the money raised from the sale of the calendars will be given to this year's four chosen charities. The Air Ambulance, Help for Heroes, The British Heart Foundation and The Macmillan Nurses. Don't worry, we arent in it!!!

Cyclo-Cross Videos on You Tube. 1969/70

Just been over to UKcyclocross and seen these two You Tube vids. Great quote in the 1969 Video after the commentator quotes that Cyclo cross has experienced a huge rise in popularity ". . . If you're like me it's hard to see why . . it seems to combine all the worst in cycling and cross country running!!"
