The first few months of this year have been 100% geared towards the racing season ahead. As is the nature of the UK weather, to maximise training quality and quantity we head abroad to train. January was to the Canary Islands, and then I have made two more trips to Spain with Atherton Racing and Madison Saracen team.
There have been a number of articles and blogs from the teams and athletes about these camps – check them out:
