You know the ones when you look back and think "ahh yes - it started then...."
Renewed my BC membership/race licence.
Bought a fully fledged road race bike.
Entered my first road race for 25 years (I am now 47!!!!).
Had a letter saying that the woman that drove into me whilst training during the first week of last December had been convicted of driving without due care.
Just as the pain from one door reaches conclusion I open up an even greater world of pain - can't wait to get onto them hills in the bunch and give it large though at my age I think I my be attempting the impossible.

k and I am slow as st!Keep on pushing!
Have entered Welwyn Wheelers RR on April 22nd, its part of the Eastern region road race league which the club is a member of. I am very lucky there appears to be a race within the league nearly every weekend through may/june.
Might warm up with a a go at Hog Hill beforehand and Welwyn track league (which I will ride) starts at the end of April as well. So have lots of opportunity to get some serious rides in.
Have ordered a Dolan Ares in An Post team colours full Red grouppo (with BB30), Infinito carbon 38mm section tubular wheels with 3T finishing kit. Can't wait it should be some bike and I think a bit of a bargain including the wheels and Continental Competition tubs, £2620 - a full team bike for not too much wonga.

No its ERRL (eastern road race league) - SERL is the league "next door" below us geographically.
I'm sure I will see you at Hog Hill sometime in the summer - but I'm st at circuit races, 67kg's so the open road and the hillyer the better for me (though I did have some wins at the old Eastway circuit many years ago).
