Sundayriders: The 3 peaks platinum
http://skidmarkssits.blogspot.com/2009/03/3-peaks-platinum.html
Saturday, March 28, 2009. The 3 peaks platinum. No cycling today, Jane had entered us for the South Wales Three Peaks Trial. This is a 30 km hike over three peaks in South Wales. We haven't done much hiking this year, and I haven't run at all. So, I wasn't looking forward to 30km and three mountains. Route,unlike the Gold , which is circular, is a straight route starting at Llantony. Priory and finishing in Abergavenny. Easy tiger , I'm not out with the alphas today ;-). On the ascent we passed Malcom.

CYCLING AND CYCLE RACING. Tuesday, 17 December 2013. I had a bit of a shock when I got in from my Saturday ride, a face contorted and fixed with staring eyes and a menacing grimace from my hall floor. No warning or explanation for which I have seen other magazines placed on the top shelf and in opaque bags! The face of a man only 15 yards from the finish line of a World Championships not a person i recognise. A solid 8th in the Pursuit (Pic Steve Walton). Scratch Final (Pic Steve Walton). I Do Not Despair.
