Raleigh Bike Opportunity!!!

One of the amazing things from last year's Road Racing season was that I won the Mallory Park Road Race League. With this came the opportunity to get a Raleigh Road Race bike. It was awesome!!!

Last Week, prior to my first road race of the 2016 season I picked up the bike. It was amazing to go to the Raleigh warehouse and meet some of the guys working there (and to pick up the bike of course!!). I met up with the two other winners and we were first introduced to our pride and joy for the up coming season (the bike of course!). 

The bike itself is amazing, it is a Raliegh Criterium Sport with Shimano Ultegra components and it runs beautifully. I'm really enjoying riding it and I can't wait to race it in the up coming season!!

After we received the bikes we had a tour around the warehouses, seeing the bikes on show and all the new models of Raleigh bikes. Then we had a professional photo shoot with one of the Raleigh photographers which was really exciting!! 


Here's Me getting my photo taken!!!

NDCXL 2015-2016 U16

As my beloved Cyclocross season is over. The time has come around for the annual NDCXL award night. 

The year anything could have happened for me, I could have been at the back and getting used to the  big step up in under 16's racing or I could be coming top 5 in some NDCXL races and top 25 in the Nationals. 

This year it was the latter of the two. From the start to the end I loved the Cyclocross season and also from the start al the way through to the end I was coming in the top 5 in NDCXL races and top 25 in Nationals. I was working really hard and everything was to show for it. 

By the end of the season; racing week-in, week-out and being consistent in my results, I got 3rd in the NDCXL!! And to go along with that I finished the season with a win!  Hopefully next year I will get several more.

What a season!!
