The next round of the national trophy is due to take place this sunday at Southampton Sport Centre. This course has particular memories for me as it has always been one of my favorite ones in the Wessex League. Mind you, time flies, its been about 15 years since I last rode the course in Anger & its been re-designed quite a lot since those days.
Last years race was a exciting as ever, and made even more gruelling due to the fact that it was so cold.
I shall be photographing the event on Sunday & hope to post some pictures on here shortly.
