teamwallis-CHH Cycling Team

That's the work done, all the team bikes are now ready. For this season, as said earlier, the juniors are on the new Foil, and the U23 on a mix of Addicts and Foils. We are now in a position to let you know we have a couple of new sponsors for the 2012 season. We have continued support from CHH, Telent, Powerbar, Continental, WRC and Approved Inspectors.

The season is nearly upon us! We are just putting the finishing touches to everything before the sesaon starts. Dafydd is down in Abersytwyth with the U23 team working on Hills and Drills in prep for the Premier Calendar Series, I will be joining him later on, just putting the finishing touches to the bikes for this year. The U23 will be using a mix of Scott Addicts, and Foils due to the limited availability of the Foil, and the fact the Addict still is a great bike. Read more ...

Team Wallis riders have continued to ride the Manchester Track League Premier Division through the winter months and into the new 2012 session. Julian has been regularly in attendance and picked up a few points each week but boosted that this week (24th January) with his first win for 2012 in the 10 mile scratch race where in a spectacular finish he was well clear of the bunch. Julian also placed in the 40 lap scratch for group 1 whilst Rob and Harry both placed in the group 2 race over the same distance.

Teamwallis-chh riders have been in attendance at the Tuesday evening Premier League at Manchester Velodrome through the autumn and have regularly featured in the top placings.

Riding against the very best of British, Harry and Rob are always up there in the action seeking the elusive win. Read more ...

Jacob becomes the latest teamwallis-chh National Champion, we have now had 7!!!

In a pulsating Youth Male Madison race, the pairing of Chris Lawless Maxgear RT & Jacob Ragan Teamwallis CHH RT took a convicing victory and celebrated long and hard at the end of a class race put on by some top young talent. Speaking afterwards they had this to say:

Jacob Ragan: "It feels fantastic, like I said before, me and Chris have been doing this since we were 12 in succession, and to be here now, standing on the podium, British champions is fantastic, it feels great." Read more ...

Tanfield, the sixteen year-old who earlier in the year rode for the GB Junior team in the notoriously tough Junior Paris Roubaix, again displayed a nerve and talent as precocious as a particularly presumptuous greedy young thoroughbred to finish second in the final round of the cup but with a large enough points cushion to take the highly polished silver cup and the jersey.

Matthew Holmes was today in action riding for Great Britain at the World Champs in Copenhagen. The race was won by French rider Henri-Pierre Lecuisinier, Matt was active in the race, making one of the breaks of the day, and gained some great experience of racing at the biggest stage for a junior.
