No' a bad one to win, that - famous race, cracking course, big miles! Really well done, Cedric. Stellar! 

Well done Cedric !

Well done indeed. Jan, please note that I had already paid my own tribute in the more appropriate road race section-just sayin. Without order there is chaos. I have informed the committee anonymously. As is the new norm.

Super result Cedric. What a great season you’re having. 

chapeau Cedric vous etes l’homme

Well done to Cedric who won the Sam Robinson road race today - he joins a who's who of Scottish Cycling on the trophy including wheelers like Brian Smith, Willie Gibb and Robert Melrose!
Chapeau
 
 

Hi people,
the title of my post might have set alarm bells ringing. Sorry for that.
So.... I’ve not been well for the past 3-4 years. Up & down. Making bad choices then punishing myself for it. Caught in a loop. Eventually went to get help.
Basically l, I had a really bad experience when I was young that I hidaway from.Denied it happened. Beat myself up for it. 
Eventually, I sought help. I was referred to a councillor and a CBT therapist. I won’t lie, having to discuss my issues and experiences was brutal. 
Why am I telling you this? Because if I hadn’t I probably wouldn’t be here.
Things got so bad that, what I thought was my salvation, “cycling” became toxic. Watching my weight, training, trying to keep up &, as life unravelled, being dropped was very crushing. I saw cycling as being my validation but it became a pressure & a stressor.
Thanks to mental health professionals & some very good friends in the club who have given me council, I’m on the mend. Thanks, guys.
I’m still cycling but for now I’m just going out when I feel like it. I’m also eating like a horse with no qualms or worries about “racing weight” I never raced much anyway!
Why am I posting this? We live in a society that is so driven by aspiration and the need to “get on” and compete. I’ve come to the conclusion that after my experiences I’m just lucky to be here. I’m quite proud to be alive.
So my message is- if you are struggling, don’t be ashamed to seek help and if you think a friend is struggling don’t shy away from asking if they are ok.
you just might savesomeone’s life. 
If you are struggling and looking for help, message me. I might not have the answers but I can signpost you to people who can help you.
It’s ok not to be ok!

8h30 at Erskine Bridge, isn’t it?
See you there  

Great photos. Well done Stuart and Cedric

Well done Stuart looks like a tough course! Nice win Cedric, first of many 

First go at the CX today, dug out my 10 year old kit, last worn about 2 stone ago and decided my tactic would be start at the back and try my hardest to stay there.
A bit apprehensive I stayed near the rear of the race to begin with, and soon found myself pegging back some places.
Just as i thought it was all going well, the race got fairly strung out, with the fast group miles ahead, there were no more targets.
Around the 40 min mark Cedric came flying past to lap me with apparently no effort.
The dismount needs a bit of work, coming to a stop to get back on, apparently isnt the mist time efficient. 
Got to the finish with no crashes and not in last place, a resounding success!
Well done to Cedric who i believe won by a country mile on a warm sunny day.

Well done Stuart & Cedric

well done and congrats to Cedric
 
That drop through the roots looks fun, more like xc mtb course than a cx!
