A short introduction

Well as my first post on here i suppose i had better introduce myself a little. I am a final year espoir rider in the UK currently riding as a 1st category rider for Team Sabbath Claytan. Having recently finished my degree at Loughborough Uni, 4 years there is 3 years and 11 months too long, and in reality all i really learnt was Civil Engineering and bike riding don't really mix, i feel it is my time to live my dream and spend at least one season as a full time rider on the continent. Unlike many riders in my position i am fortunate enough to have already raced for 3 months in Brittany during the summer of 2008 with UC Briochine (UCB) and it is to this team i will return at the end of Feb 2010, i say this as i know how hard it seems to be able to get a ride over there, the first time i rode for UCB i had a phone number and a promise of a meeting with the team manager at a car park in Saint Brieuc (where the team is based)-talk about being nervous!

I'll try and update the blog as regularly as possible in the run up to the season and during it to give you an insite into the life of a normal 22 year old lad, who has a bike riding problem!

Oh and if anyone wants to help me out in anyway im sure i can give you a shameless plug in a blog update and link to your website. Ciao
