Nicci and Jason win mixed 2-up

Jason and Nicci rode the Antelope 2-up time trial on sunday, run by cycling time trial legend, Glen Longland.

Here is Jason's take on events!:

"We got there nice and early to try out this new time trial course down south between stockbridge and Romsey.  Once again it was a very cold start so we had to wrap up for the warm up, then we got back to the hq and got ready for the start , numbers on , aero helmets  , overshoes etc, but I still kept my leggings on!!"

"Then we had a little drama when Nicci lost her car keys just before riding to the start and then riding to the start her bar end levers fell off in her hands but lucky enough she held onto it and screwed it back.  The actual race was straight forward, Nicci called me the Human derny as i paced her around the course, but I still made her do a few turns on the front, the last mile was abit grippy which hurt a little.  But it was good fun and I think Nicci was also pushed to the limit too, so she was happy.  We went round in 24-51 for first mixed team (male + Female) and also finished 15th overall in the event."

Well done to both!  I know first-hand how tough it is trying to hang on to Jason's wheel for 10 miles!
