Well then. Thanks very much to all those that turned up to the Christmas do yesterday afternoon- and to the somewhat less glamourous morning run as well. We had a delightful time plugging our way up Cock hill and Glossop low in the rain, wind and mist, and we even had a festive leprechaun with …
In racing terms, not a lot happened, to be honest. The main reason for this was the impending Snowmageddon that was forecast. And yes, snow did indeed fall. It wasn’t quite as bad as it was forecast, but there has still been a fair amount of the white stuff falling out of the sky, there …
So here I am at home, after a lovely run on the hills this morning with the Sunday morning crew… and now the wrong side of a number of beakers of mulled cider. The rest of this might not make a whole lot of sense. It would seem that our Alps based contingent of Chris, …

Some stuff has happenned. I made up some other stuff. It snowed. Mark H and Skusey went for a run in the snow and took pictures which are quite nice, so I nicked one… (thanks Mark). Im sure there are other things going on that I havent picked up on sorry if I’ve missed any …

So a fair amount did indeed happen, despite me thinking that we’re slowing down on the old racing front towards Christmas. I’ve updated …

This week has had a few things going on. No snow on the tops to speak of, but I’ve just got in from a bit of a chilly wander on the tops (long story but that’s why this is a little late out) and there is certainly ice forming on the bogs. I’ve probably missed …

Snow on the tops – that was the forecast for the weekend, and while none of us believed it, Ant and Dec, sorry, Jules got up on Bleaklow early on Sunday to suss out the white stuff. It wasn’t exactly a huge dump of snow, more of a sprinkling, but it was there for a …

A weekend of 2 halves… misty and windy on the tops on Sat. and glorious on Sunday. I hope everyone enjoyed the Snake being closed on the week just gone – its pretty much the only time cyclists actually get to *enjoy* the road rather than just endure it. Not a whole lot of road …

So much happened last week that I totally missed a few things out. Totally my fault for forgetting about it, but there you go – it’s all down there at the bottom of the page, so if you want to start down there, and then come back up here for this weeks news, feel free. …

The dust has settled, the tent is back down and packed away in the loft, stories of heroism are doing the rounds and a glow of happy tiredness is warming its way through fuzzy limbs as memories of the Hill Relays fade into happy delirium. I have received some information about what went on, so …
