getting ready for battle
Well i travelled down to Cheddar bmx track on Sunday acompanied by Warren Bancroft (alans elite rider) Jacob Roberts (redlines hot shoe 12 year old) and the legendary Gav Foster (www.bikevideos.co.uk) I went down to attend to some team stuff and get some practice before this coming weekends double national race.
I raced 17+ and ended up racing some of the young fellas ive been coaching with the BCF Talent team program.
The track was good fast and technical. Andy Par old time rider just returned and looking hot unfortunately broke his collar bone on the notorious 3rd straight. get well soon mate.
Monday was taken up at Preston Bmx track working with Phil Dixon (BCF mountain bike coach and national cyclo cross champion) and 4 of his academy riders. Phil has the vision to see that learning bmx skills helps pretty much every other aspect of cycling. if you can handle a bmx over a tricky course it has to help when you get back onto a bigger 26" wheeled mountainbike. The guys and girls where fantastic and really improved throughout the days session. I wish them every luck in there future mountainbike careers. (sorry ive no pics) Heres some random Cheddar pictures.
talk soon Mike
