Much catching up over the past two days..and another to come..I hope to miss out on Sunday!
Helping my clubmate race as well...one bronze and one silver so far.
Pirate's elder daughter came over from Bristol..I had photos and papers and clothes for the three of them..we had a good couple of hours chatting.
Repeated again with a friend who used to be joint secretary of the allotment society in Cwmcarn, with me.
Then up to see son #3...and got fed supper and invited to stay overnight. Their son was staying over at his girlfriend's home, so there was a bed spare!
Son #1 came over this afternoon to the Velodrome and saw a lot of his contemporaries racing....he needs to do a lot more riding to get that fit!!
He fitted a new rear wiper on my car , then we went for a walk before I faced the traffic back to Somerset. That took an hour more than usual with traffic backed up over ten miles going down from Bristol, as a campervan had broken down in the middle lane of the motorway .
Rest and repeat tomorrow..and I am going to check the map for less congested roads....the main culprit is the roadworks on the new Severn bridge....

...I don't think that we have cycling like this here.
Tom you most certainly do! The Masters World champs have been in LA, 2021 and 22, there is a good velodrome in Texas, the Alkek
Currently, there are 21 velodromes in the United States and track cycling offers the greatest number of potential Olympic medals for cycling.28 Feb 2023

Now lovely to be able to sleep over With traffic being so bad you need to be very alert
I’m thrilled to see older riders—I so admired Pirate riding up until his last months (almost days!) ❤️❤️❤️
I was not familiar with track cycling until you introduced it on your blog. You have a good circle of cycle friends. Do you still compete? We have a few cycle clubs that like riding on the country roads in Carlisle and Concord, MA.
Yes, he still occasionally rode the turbo trainer gently up to the end of march
No more competing..I don't have the urge to do that any more
