I find weight in the panniers helps.
He doesn't need weight in the panniers, he has me on the back!

Thankfully this year is not so much about hills. And we're wearing blue & yellow so go faster.

I find climbing round here more testing than in teh North where the hills are bigger. You can't get into a rhythm so easily and the descents are too short to make up time.

It's our new club kit. We defected from the West Suffolk Wheelers and have joined a bunch of fast-northern-points-chasers, the VC167.
We like them, they are pleased to have us. It's a win all round. And just wearing the kit makes you go faster (although, see sig for disclaimer).
