After breaking my leg last spring and missing out on the trip to Majorca, I was very happy to be making it to the cycling island this year. The party on this occasion comprised a mixed bag of myself representing Team Racing Snails, Rhys Payne of Porth & District CC, Mark Andrews and Chris Lee of Merthyr CC, Chris Davies of Bynea CC, Paul Coleman, Welsh TT 12 hour champion and his son and hot cycling talent Dan, plus unaffiliated riders Richard Hier and Gareth Jehu.
