Martin gets season underway.

The road season is now well underway and not just the BC events but the LVRC races. For those of you new to racing this stands for League of Veteran Racing Cyclists and is a keenly fought series for vets over 40 where riders compete in 5 year age bands. Generally two or three age bands race together and there is an overall result plus results for each age band.

Martin Hulbert is one of the most competitive vets around - motto "winter miles, summer smiles" which explains why he managed an average of around 15 hours a week last year. Sitting around at the back of the race chatting, he managed to let the break go early and then spent the rest of the race trying to get back up to the front. It turns out with some success as Martin finished 5th overall and second in his age group.

Race 1 - Categories A/B/C (40 - 54 years)
1st Trevor Burke 48 miles in 1h 59m 45s - 2nd successive win.
