The last time I wrote was following the National Series Race in Scotland. After a credible 5th place, I secured the lead of the British National Series.
This was a good achievement and better than I anticipated. The next race was the 10th July and was the next round in the national series. It was relatively local to me and hoped to show a good result. Starting the race my legs weren't as good as i hoped which was later explained by the development of a virus which plauged me for several months. After a string of antibiotics and regaining my strength, I went on to finish 5th in the British National Series and finished the season by winning a race in the Dave Creasy Track Meet.
And on Sunday Robert Hogg went up to Scotland to take part in the Spokes Cycles Kingdom Junior Classic, part of the Junior National Series.
After consistency, I am looking forward to the next round of the National Series in Kingdom in Scotland on the 7th of June and the remainder of national races to come.
I have also some great races lined up in Belgium.
