The Fifteen Apprentices take on the Overnight Woodland Challenge…

At 10am the apprentices arrived at Hessaford Farm woods in the wilds of North Cornwall where they were camping for the night. The woods are literally in the middle of nowhere with the nearest road over a mile away! The woodland camp [...]

They set off from Wadebridge in pairs, swopping partners after each leg to make sure that everyone could have a go. When they reached Padstow, it was off to Rick Steins for [...]

The Running Man……September Update

So where did September go???? It’s been a pretty good month of training and it’s looking good for November. Following a bit of a tweak in the calf muscle a couple of weeks ago, I had to spend a week off the feet, so managed to clock up a few long rides on the bike. [...]
