A Busy and Interesting Weekend for MDCC

British Leisure Show
MDCC's Go Ride coaches Paul Richardson and Nigel Shurben were at Windsor Race Course on Saturday afternoon supporting British Cycling's Go Ride team of Josie Heffernan and Graham MacNamee. They were providing young visitors to the Show with a variety of cycling skill and racing activities using BC provided bikes.

They had over 100 children taking part which made the afternoon well worthwhile in raisng the profile of cycling and MDCC in the area. Also there to help out from MDCC were John Percy, almost recovered from his broken collar bone, Andrew Payne and Rod Latchford. Thanks to all of them. We will have a a more extensive report in the next newsletter.

MDCC Tastes the Water in Majorca
This weekend several members flew out to Majorca for a few days training in the sun. Among them were Simon Greenland, John Cross and Gary Pritchard.
They'll be sending in a report shortly.

In Training for the Ventoux
Mark and Linda Regel had a good long-weekend training session down on the south coast at Eastbourne in preparation for tackling Mont Ventoux in June. The combination of strong winds and hills made them realise that the Ventoux is nothing compared to the South Downs in March.
