As you’ll have probably noticed David Millar has been selected for the Olympic squad. David rode for the Wycombe when he first started racing seriously in the UK, and is a life member of High Wycombe CC. When Sky News wanted to do a report piece on his selection and the controversy surrounding this decision, they naturally came to the HWCC team for opinion. The HWCC elves are trying to get a better video uploaded for everyone to view, but there is a video of Cipo’s TV on Youtube. High Wycombe Cycling Club has always had a broad reach covering a myriad of different cycling activities ranging from casual cycling at all times of the week, weekend club runs with the occasional café stop, competitive time trials, road racing, mountain biking, track cycling, the crazy Audax riders covering 1200km in one-go, not to mention professional cyclists like David Millar! Its traditional values are embedded throughout the club and all 180 members pride themselves in taking part in a range of cycling activities, whether at international level or just for fun.

HWCC riders Michelle Ayres and Adam Topham braved the Hounslow and District Wheelers 100 event on the Bentley Bypass H100/88 on Sunday, risking either being blown off their bikes by 20 mph+ winds, or shaken off by the disturbingly rough road surface between Holybourne and Chawton roundabouts. Michelle was doing really well at 50 miles but unfortunately didn’t finish. The cause of her DNF is unknown at the time of going to press.
