Cotswold Classic 2017
This is a subtitle for your new post
The team were back on old ground in 2017 with the Cotswold Classic Sportive. Taking on just the short 33 mile route but it was a great start to the season and a perfect opener to test the legs after the long winter months.
A team of 5 Apache Brave Racing members took on the hilly Cotswolds route with challenging hills at the start and end but with a nice and speedy flat middle section. The weather was kinder this year compared to the year before where the team faced flooded roads and fallen branches.
With a quick stop at the feed station which was located two thirds in to the ride, the riders grabbed a few items before jumping back on to their bikes before tackling a few steep hills before the finish. A short sprint away by Richard saw him come home first but the remaining riders soon passed the finish line moments later.
A great medal and good bag at the end made for a great day out.
