Friday night was the Pro Sprint Eliminator around the centre of Pickering. The riders race in groups of four around the town, down tight alleys and even through someones garden!
Saturday was the first day of Cross Country racing. Last year one of Ian's heros, Thomas Frischknecht, was racing. He was there again this year but this time to cheer on his son who was taking part in the juniors.
Of course no trip is complete without our fury friend Vern! Not to be left out he came along and even wore a British Cycling sticker to cheer on our riders.
He even tried to have some of Ian's cake!
We also found we were famous! We made it into the programme (I'm the one with the Shram Bam Bam's!)
Looks like a fun weekend. How nice that Vern got to go too.
