"Awesome.. what stage was this?
Was Brailsford kicking about as well?"
Oliver Jones replied to Tony Macpherson's discussion IM UK 70.3"I did my first (and only) half IM at Wimbleball a few years ago. It's a great event and the majority of the racers were first-timers so I'm sure you'll be fine. I would say the bike course is hard/challenging and the run…"
Oliver Jones replied to Tony Macpherson's discussion IM UK 70.3"Pictures required Tony!! macca is supposed to be doing it as well.
Absolutely epic course with a run thats laughably tough. You'll love it though"
Oliver Jones replied to Tony's discussion London to Brighton ride Sunday 13 May"I thoroughly recommend the route to anyone who's thinking about it! There are a couple of drag-climbs on the way but nothing to worry about. Once out of London the roads are fairly quiet and if you have nice weather the scenery is…"

Oliver Jones replied to Lee Randle's discussion Ride This Weekend - 11th March"I thought you liked hills Laura! - Its definitely one of the toughest in the south east I reckon. youve just got to jump on the pain train once youve gone round that 'dog leg' bend. Love it!!!!!! Did Lee go up in the big…"

My hero Chrissie Wellington!!!
"Great picture Laura - definitely keep in touch. Im sensing a reality tv show with the two of you :-)
Great book I thought - I got her to sign at Waterstones and it didnt take long to read. I really liked the section about Nepal.

Oliver Jones replied to Frank Fonton's discussion Hell of the Ashdown - Sunday 26 - Getting there"It really was perfect weather - not sure it would have been as fun if it had been like previous years with wind, rain and even ice. In terms of organisation and marshalling though I think it's a tough sportive to beat! Great to see…"
Oliver Jones replied to Frank Fonton's discussion Hell of the Ashdown - Sunday 26 - Getting there"Hey
I would hazard a guess of at least 4.5 hours. There aren't any hills to worry about massively - e.g. we go the easier way over Toys Hill - just lots of drags that seem to go on forever and no easy bits to cruise round. Its a…"
Oliver Jones replied to Frank Fonton's discussion Hell of the Ashdown - Sunday 26 - Getting there"Cheers Tony - thanks a lot. Are you still round the corner? I'll email you"
Oliver Jones replied to Frank Fonton's discussion Hell of the Ashdown - Sunday 26 - Getting there"If anyone's around to give a lift for this - it would be most appreciated. Please message me on the site. Otherwise, ill see everyone at the start. Is there a start time list somewhere?"
Oliver Jones replied to Frank Fonton's discussion Hell of the Ashdown - Sunday 26 - Getting there"Not if you'd seen me the last time I did this - it wasn't pretty at all. Im glad the windrushers are all leaving at the same time so we can spur each other on. I might suggest a hot dog stop at the top of Ashdown Forest…"

Tonight's spin session
Audrey cannot unfortunately make it tonight but we will still have a session on the bikes for 60 - 90 minutes.
Bring a towel, energy drink and maybe something to eat for those staying for 90 mins.
Alternatively, do a set on the bikes and then go for a run either on the treadmill or outside.
Essential training session so see you later

Social - this wednesday!!
Hi everyone
We thought it was about time we all got together outside of our cycling shoes and speedos for a friendly beer!
One of our regular swim session members Rob has suggested the Half Moon Pub (on half Moon Lane in herne Hill) on Wednesday for a rollapalooza event.
It looks a bit of fun and if you're having withdrawal symptoms from missing the normal Wednesday swim session, you can perhaps have a go and challenge another…

Committee Positions
Hi Guys
Apologies for the delay in getting back to all of you regarding the committee positions we discussed previously. Firstly, thanks all for your interest and showing your commitment to the club. We can't do it alone and need as many people as possible to help out.
Over the last few weeks, we have been identifying club objectives and what the priorities are over the next few months so this process has taken slightly longer than…

- Hi mate hope all is good and the weekend's training has gone well? Can you remind me of your mob number or give me a call/text as cant seem to find yours. Want to ask about your hotel location for Austria... Cheers, James

Anthony Bailey said… - Hi Oli, I got the swine just before the Vitruvian in September so had to miss it and was trying to do longer stuff before that so haven't been to Windrush for months! Since then I've been pretty slack although I did the Kingston Breakfast run on 11th Oct. Thanks for the reminder! It would be good to start up proper training again!

Anne said… - L Alpe d'Huez was really great, I really enjoyed it except the swim that was not very friendly...I finished 583 within 3:12
Hope I will do it again next year. And now I would like to do another one end of september but didn't find one yet. And you what is your next race? I am coming back to UK on the 21st Aug so maybe will go to Saturday morning session.
