Well, I held a BCF licence from 1984 to 1989 and did my share of RRs. Half the time I got dropped and blown out the back but I did get a 3rd, 2 x 4ths and a 5th, often on hilly courses (which might raise an eyebrow or two). Anyway, I rode an LVRC circuit race last summer on Thorney Island and got blown out the back, as expected. If I get the chance to train next year I would opt for another LVRC licence as I think that BC is too big for its own boots and is not really aimed at the likes of me. Training is everything in RRs as there is nowhere to hide. I think that there is merit in sorting a plan for next year but I can't guarantee I'll ride.
