The beauty of the Porlock coast, seen through yesterday's incredible National Hillclimb championships.
Thanks to @mccycling for posting a great day and for @cyclingtimetrials making these happen every year
.

A glorious day on the South Downs with one week to go until nationals.
While the morning race of Steyning Bostal is a short punchy one, the afternoon race of Titch hill resembles a Porlock climb albeit a little shorter at 3 miles.
Thanks to Cris and the Brighton Mitre team. See you next Sunday!

Last night London Dynamo were proud to host two top athletes and entrepreneurs aiming to improve athletic performance at The Clubhouse in Putney.
Yanto Barker, former Pro cyclist and founder of Le Col spoke about Engyne Health, a new interactive training app which aims to assist athletes balance their work / life / sporting activities in a meaningful way.
Former Pro Triathlete, Stefan Van der Fluit is the co-founder of FloBio, a sweat sensor designed to measure sodium and fluid loss in individuals during training and events. Used by EF Education and trialled by Movistar World Tour teams, it is designed to assist with hydration and electrolyte intake through a wearable monitor.
The discussions through the evening were led and compèred by London Dynamo member Simon Gilchrist who is himself engaged in performance science as a Sports Physiotherapist.
We would like to thank both Yanto and Stefan for their time and enthusiasm, and Simon for keeping questions on track.
The Clubhouse once again proved to be a great venue for an event like this.

A little reel of some Catford and Bec shots this past Sunday

Some highlights from last night's amazing Faze Action gig at the Fox and Firkin in Lewisham, featuring a live 9 piece band, orchestrated by Simon Lee.
Featuring tracks from their recent album and classic favourites from the back catalogue, it was a full house through to the nights end.

This Sunday we are in for a treat with the classic double header of the Catford and Bec CC hillclimbs.
The Catford is billed as the oldest cycle race in the world with the The first edition taking place in 1887, when 24 riders tackled Westerham Hill in Kent. Over the years the race has used several Kent hills but its true home is Yorks Hill, a short, sharp climb of around 700 yards near Sevenoaks. The hill has also hosted the national championship, including in 1961, and the course record dates from 1983.
The Bec CC Hill Climb is equally well loved having been run since 1956 and It takes place on White Lane (known to cyclists as Titsey Lane) near Limpsfield, Surrey, and is run in the afternoon after the Catford event, which gives the "Cat and Bec" double header its name.
Organise your club ride to come and watch the scenes, we have nearly 100 starters in both.
First rider off at 9.31 at the Catford and the Bec race starts at 2pm.

Congratulations to Ollie Wood from RCC taking the win at last night's Sheffield Open Grand Prix.
As with the women's race, this also counts as the final round of the Rapha Superleague after Cambridge was recently cancelled.
It was a close affair all evening with the final decisive break of 5 riders going clear on lap 5.

Congratulations to Katie Scott on last night's impressive win in the final round of the British Cycling National Circuit series on the historic Sheffield town center streets.
In addition to being part of the circuit series, Sheffield also hosted the final round of the Rapha Superleague.
DAS Hutchinson played the game, sending Morven away in an early break that was reeled in by the peleton only for Katie to then take the opportunity, staying away to the finish line.

Some highlights of our top 5 on the night, from the ever great Cycle Exchange Guildford open criterium.
Trading places through the night, our leaders put on a show and It all came down to a three man sprint to the line, taken by Tom Armstrong, with Toby Barnes just edging Mak Larkin on the line for second place.
Callum Laborde took forth with Danylo Riwnyi closing out the five.
