Despite this bring a blog about running, it’s not an athletics track I’m talking about. We live very close to Castle Combe Motor Racing circuit and every Tuesday Chippenham Wheelers (the local cycling club that we’re family members of) organise a cycling night. The chance to cycle on smooth traffic free tarmac, with coaching available, isn’t one to be passed up.
Mr B&T took the opportunity to ride in a fast group, whilst me and my boy rode together at our own pace. In total we managed 10 laps, 18.8 miles, in 1 hour 23 minutes. We’re in training for a big ride on Sunday – but more about that later.
Combe looks so strange without any cars! And the red thing is quite interesting to flag from when it is windy – it is quite wobbly! Anyway, glad you all had a nice time!
Ah – you know Castle Combe? I always think the ‘Red Thing’ must have been the inspiration for the Olympic Park ‘Orbit’ Tower
