Bethany travels to Netherlands
A huge thanks to Ride for Charlie for helping me get out to the first round of the 3 Nations cup in the Netherlands. The course in Oldenzaal was super fast and flowy with some great A lines where line choice was key to holding the most speed.
Phoebe races Three Nations Cup in Oldenzaal
Thank you to Ride for Charlie for helping me get out to the Three Nations Cup in Oldenzaal again, for my first UCI Elite race which did not disappoint. The course was even better than last year, with new A-line features.
Harry travels to Greece
A huge thanks to ride for Charlie for helping me get out to Greece to race two UCI C1 races in Sparta earlier this month. The experience was great learning what it’s like to race in an international field at elite level, I was happy with my results finishing 14th elite on Thursday and 8th in the U23 race on the Saturday.
Beatrix travels to Spain
Massive thanks to Ride for Charlie for helping me get out to Spain to race for 3 weeks. First up was La Nucia - a super fun and fast course which I loved. Next was chelva where I had a really good start and felt confident on the rocky techy features but I punctured and lost places on the 3rd lap and so just enjoyed the course and the race atmosphere for the last lap.
Daisy travels to Spain
I am so grateful to Ride For Charlie for the support they gave me, helping me to compete at my first xco race of the year in Chelva, Spain. The race was super tough against a strong field and the pace was high from the very start.
Alderney races in Belgium
After trying to make the trip across to Europe a couple of times this season and having lots of disruptions in the process, I finally got a window of opportunity to get out to Belgium to do a couple of post National Champs races.
Sam racing in Kortrijk, Loenhout and Borgloon
I managed to get two trips in over the season racing in Kortrijk, Loenhout and Borgloon.
Aelwen travels to Zonnebeke
Thanks to @rideforcharlie for supporting me again in doing a round of the Exact Cross series in Zonnebeke last weekend. The race was super fast on a completely frozen track where you had to trust your equipment and ability to keep you upright!
Oliver In Belgium
Huge thanks to Ride For Charlie for supporting me to race on the continent for the first time. I travelled to Belgium to race in the LRC League in Diksmuide, finishing 7th in a field of 20 riders
Eleanor In Belgium
In December I was lucky enough to spend a weekend in Belgium, doing a race on the Saturday then heading down to Namur to watch the World Cup on the Sunday. It was such an incredible experience and I've learned so much as a rider that I can take forward to next season and beyond.
Great experience in Belgium
Couldn’t ask for more, the experience the racing, food and drink!
Couldn’t thank @rideforcharlie enough to of been given the opportunity to race against the best riders in Belgium, but also be part of the atmosphere and watch one of the hardest cyclocross courses ever at the Namur World Cup.
Billy In Belgium
Thank you very much to Ride for Charlie for helping me get over to Belgium to experience racing at the top level. I was able to race at Loenhout, Baal and a national level race as well as getting to watch Diegem.
