Andy is now on the road to recovery after his second was completed with great success. He is feeling a bit better now he is able to finally eat, and will soon be able to receive visitors. We will update when he is ready with the ward details etc. I would like again to pass on mine, Amanda, and Andy's thanks for all the support. The accident was caused by an elderly man turning across the A6, he did not see Andy he claims, and Andy hit the windscreen/A pillar of the car. His helmet undoubtably saved him from further injury.

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 ...
