Great to catch up with old bobsleigh buddies, Chris Gray and Neil (Scas) Scarisbrick, who drove us to 11th position in the 4man bobsleigh event at the 2002 Winter Olympics!!

"Everybody that goes to the Olympics always wants to come away with a medal" Britain's first Black Winter Olympic medallists @deanomw and @courtneyrumbolt made history when they claimed bronze in the four-man bobsleigh at Nagano 1998. #HiddenFigures skysports.com/more-sports/ot…
