training hard....

Not just us, also the Junior Olympic Development Squad.

I realized, watching these 16-18 year olds that I'd started time trialling 50 years ago, and track racing 48 years ago....at that time you weren't allowed to do so any younger.

  2. It all looks exhausting! Are you in your new place yet? Hope it's progressing as you'd like. x

  3. I've often wondered what would happen if they came adrift mid-spin...

    I never rode in time trials but I did once accidentally end up in the Cologne triathlon on my big heavy dutch bike.

    I overtook a couple of them too.

    Admittedly they were on the running section of the race and I was riding, but still...

  4. Looks just a tad too, too energetic for me, I fear. Hope you have a new place sorted and the move goes well. Take care, both.
