Valentines Dinner & Beyond

Well firstly we would like to thank all who came to the Marine hotel on Saturday 12th for what was a fantastic night. The food was great, the music (from Aber-Jazz) was uplifting and your generosity was overwhelming. Good times were had by all and it was great seeing some of you, and catching up. The Prize draw went swimmingly, albeit a little embarrassing as the majority of the winners weren't at the night (most of which were hospital employees)

A week on an we've now met with Shelley & Brodie at Continental. They have very kindly kitted us out "top to toe" in Continental kit. Our bikes are now running on fresh Continental Sports Contact 26x1.3s, one of , if not the best commuter/slick Mtb tyre on the market. My last pair managed over 6000 miles without a single puncture. The Conti Sports contact even comes with a 1 year "anti puncture guarantee," a nice bit of piece of mind when going the 320 miles from Lowestoft back to Aberystwyth.

Our trainings ramping up slightly now. I'm completing over 100 miles a week where possible (this weeks a rest week - thank god) and Sylvia is completing longer and higher effort Turbo sessions. Thanks to the guys at Conti her Turbo training will become quieter and more effective as she now has a fresh Conti home trainer tyre 26x1.75 fitted to her specialized.

The Time trial season is fast approaching and I have some challenges ahead. More of this to follow. :)

10 Days to Go !!!!

Hi guys,
Well it's only 10 days and counting until the next of our charity events. If you're looking for somewhere to enjoy a 3 course meal and have a little groove to the sounds of "Aber Jazz" then you've found the place to come.

We have some great prizes, that have been donated by local businesses, and these will be raffled off in a silent auction on the night. We would like to thank amongst others Lake Vyrnwy Hotel and The Jewellery House, Aberystwyth for their extra special gifts.

Tickets are now available from either Sylvia or myself, and both Penrhyncoch Football club and The Marine Hotel. The tickets are going well, so don't be disappointed, get yours while you can. Numbers are strictly limited as we only have a set number of seating places.
Thanks for all of your ongoing support and we look forward to seeing you on Saturday 12th @ 7pm at The Marine hotel.
Martyn & Sylvia.
