A reader shares her memories of bicycle racing – on the stage! - Columnists - News - WalesOnline One of the rewards of writing a nostalgia column is the response from readers. I have had letters, e-mails and pictures sent me not only from readers in the Cardiff area, but from various other parts of the country and, indeed, from far-away places such as Belgium, Australia and America.

Hello

Due to a technical problem we shall be starting the Winter League in January rather than December. This also gives us more time to publicise the event, our fabulous prize sponsors and Pedal MCR's invaluable work with Refugees.

Hope this doesn't cause any inconvenience.

Many thanks

We're thinking of having a Winter League, prolly a race every month in December, January, February, March and April. Let us know if you think you'd like to take part. It will be a good way to get a bit of training and competition in whilst the hills and roads are snow and ice infested.
