I was with Fleetcycling today and they have extended an offer to our club members to join in with Fleetcycling’s camping area at the Semaine Fédérale. There are 8 of us from Fleet including me.
The Semaine Fédérale is based in Epinal within the Voges region of France from 5 to 12 August. This will be splendid event with wonderful cycling routes for 7 days. We will camp/caravan/motorhome as group on the fédérale camp site situated 4 kms from the centre of the town.

Congratulations to Tim and Debbie, they each recently competed in a road race in Cyprus, Debbie was podium in her age group (no need to ask a lady which one), Tim finished fourth, and they therefore both qualify for the World Championships in Varese later this year. They should be out today riding with us lesser mortals, hope some of their expertise rubs off.
