Weekend News

Another active week or so for the Performance Academy with racers competing in TT’s, crits and road races.

Firstly if you want to get involved with racing click here for details of our Berkhamsted Castle Revolutions Festival on Sunday 24th June 2018. It’s going to be a fantastic day of racing from youth, novice through to full-on category races for men and women. There will be lots for the family to do including closed road riding for everyone and entertainment in the castle grounds.

Now for the Academy news…

Matt competed in the Thames Velo road race and finished 11th averaging over 26mph for the 50 mile race. He felt that he could have placed higher but was slightly out of position for the sprint.
