Plomesgate Grass Track

You have to love Grass Track. I came first, but its all about the fun.

GHS Championship Final

Not my best performance, but I gave it a go. In the Eastern District Qualifier, I did okay and made a new Course Record, which made me smile 🙂

National 50TT Event

I was by far the youngest, and there was no Junior Award. I got to the end feeling I could have done it again, which isn’t really perfect, as I think that means I could have gone faster. It was my first 50 though, so now i know I can push harder, earlier.

I went to Chelmsford to get a new helmet, as the old one is now too small. It was a nice ride, sunny and pretty warm in Essex.

Abbey will be on BBC Sports Radio tomorrow night (Thursday the 27th of January).
Seeing as Abbey is quite shy with interviews etc, she did really well.

Many thanks to Graeme Mac for being so kind and understanding of Abbey, as she is so young. The interview is on just after 9pm. There will also be an edited down version for a programme to run at a later date. Here is the link to the programme tomorrow:

Base miles today with my dad following in the car.
Soo hilly and actually quite cold today 🥶
With my great luck, I managed to get a headwind out and literally no wind on the way back 🙄👍
It was 1 degree and I was wearing so many layers, looking a bit big ngl😎
Photo credit to my dad again
Thanks for following me around all day😂

Thanks to Stonham Barns Park and Keith Suffling
