A wet evening of cycle racing in Aylsham

On June 13 the Pearl Izumi Tour and the Johnson Health Tech Grand Prix came to Aylsham.  When the Ladies started, the clouds opened and the rain came down in stair-rods. Two hours later it had stopped by the time the men started and the sun even came out at the end.  I could not fault the organisation with free park-and-ride coaches for spectators running from a local National Trust car-park. The races were around a 1.7 km course, so there were plenty of chances to see the riders pass.  I was a little disappointed with my pictures, but here are a few, mostly of the women's race

An experiment in nostalgia  which also eliminate some of the less than pleasing background!
