Great Support For The Men’s Olympic Road Race

  • by

We were lucky to have two of the London 2012 Olympic events take place in Surrey, and the Men’s Road Race was equally as well supported as the Time Trial. I once again I grabbed my camera, jumped on my bike, this time accompanied by Mrs Doug, and followed the River Wey to Byfleet, where the road race crossed over the M25 (via a bridge.)

Read on to see more photos, and to find out how my wife ended up as “pacesetter” for the Men’s race.

12 Years Ago The Olympic Time Trial Took Place In Surrey

  • by

With the Paris Olympics Time Trial starting today (at the time of writing) I thought it apt to revisit the London 2012 Time Trial which started and ended in Hampton Court Palace in Surrey, and which saw Bradley Wiggins win Gold, and Chris Froome the bronze medal.
