A dream come true! My first flying lap chased by the incredible @chrishoy. Clocked 15.4 A million thanks Sir Chris for your time and advice, so inspiring. Proud to wear my new @kingstonwheeler kit today too. Best advice of the day? “Enjoy the ride”. @TenerifeVelo @LeeValleyVP

Good to get back racing. Surrey League RR Dunsfold 2/3. Had the legs to win the uphill bunch sprint with six away but got boxed in. Legs felt strong after Tenerife training camp in this good, fast-pace race. ⁦@TenerifeVelo⁩ ⁦@TrainSharpJon⁩ ⁦@trainsharpchris⁩

2-week TenerifeVelo training camp in association with trainSharp to kick off a new race season for our sponsored rider @ConnorBackhouse. From novice when we started to Cat 2: that's #VolcanoPower right there. Good luck for 2023 Connor! #winter #bike #training #cycling #Tenerife

First team ride with @TrainSharpJon Juniors, U23 development and some elites. 165km, 2nd up Battery Hill and 3rd fastest of all time. Great to be back, feeling strong, loving the new bike and can’t wait for the new season of racing! Thanks Jon, Chris, Connor and @TenerifeVelo.
