West Kent Welcome To Newbie Llowes

September 27, 2015

Two rides headed out today – the main run heading out to try a new cafe down in Aylesford.

 

Whilst the boyz went and played, Alex, Gary and SteveC took nervous newbie Llowes round the lanes to Cyclopark for a well earned coffee.

 

Llowes is a personal trainer who will get to the point she’ll smash the guys into the ground. Keen to try out racing and do some big mile events over the next year and beyond, so please if you see her around help out and make sure she doesn’t get left behind. Hills seem to be Llowes biggest challenge, so please make sure someone rides with her, or you wait at the top.

 

Having said that a steady 20mph proved no difficulty over a 4mile flatter road, so watch out, she has a great smooth riding style to put some of the big gear mashers to shame!

 

Llowes – well done, I know you enjoyed it today and plan on coming out for more bad jokes, ugly faces, and sweaty short action with us – you are more than welcome to join us and we look forward to seeing you again.
