It has been 7 weeks as the new Sport Director of the London Dynamo NatB Racing Team

The mission of London Dynamo’s E12 Racing is to become the most exemplary club based racing team in the UK. In 2016 twelve committed senior + two junior racers will compete fair and clean in London Dynamo club colours at 14 National B races. Each rider will share responsibilities and agree to make sacrifices for the benefit of something bigger than himself: The TEAM. 
During the winter months the team suffers together on the roads of Surrey and around Windsor, comes spring the team will travel to warmer climates to climb to the top of their power curves and comes March and April, let all critics and pessimists know well in advance, comes the blue black Dynamo express to kick their arse.


Over the period of the past 7 weeks I had organised 7 Sunday training rides, including a motivational program, special guests and surprises here and there. Today we had our winter-ride #007 with the title "From Russia with Love" (yes like the great James Bond movie). This was just inspired by the fact that it was to be the 7th ride of this series and me just travelling to Moscow a few days before. As this was also to be the last Team-ride of 2015, I had prepared a very special treat for the boys, 150km through the hills of Surrey, taking in 10 major climbs accumulating to 2,350m of total elevation.
16 Riders turned up for a pre-christmas ride in 15'C, possible to ride in shorts, even get plenty of sun.
