Too old for crit racing?

Maybe 35 is too old to start crit racing but who cares. I have a bunch of things I want to do in 2015 and one of them is get involved in racing road bikes. The last MTB race was when I was 14 in Wiltshire and the only other races have been some badly done 24 hr team events around 2004 and the Brompton race last summer. So clearly not a lineage of racing I’m going to have a go. First stop a suitable bikes, a race license then a race series.

One of the things I enjoyed reading last year was the progress made by one of the journalists at Road.cc as he trained for and raced locally around Bath. He even finished the year in the end of the pack.

Step 1 – suitable bike. Next stop British Cycling for a race license.

See you on the tarmac.
