Out on the road yesterday with the kids on the 1982 World Championship circuit at Goodwood.

Daughter has put together a package for potential sponsors to help this season as she has no team in 2025. More information on her blog zoerochecycling.wordpress.com/about-me/

Although this utterly tragic and seems to be a fairly common occurrence, it contrasts with the coverage about the death of another young person in the same week. However, they were killed by a driver in a car. Some stuff is just normalised

Some noise about CX and Olympics happening in BC at the moment.

This summarises the responses I've had looking for support, contacts or advice for Zoe this year: "We are not in a position to offer you any financial assistance for this season. We are not aware of any Junior teams that would suit you." It's been like shouting into a void the rest of the time

Hope these 3 will be riding together for years to come 🙏🤞

A bunch of kids from South London in with superstars of cyclocross. Oscar, Milo and Zoe have been racing London CX League since they were 8, when they would often forget where they left their bikes after a race and being distracted by dogs, swings or sweets

Well what the actual..... Zoe a world champion with GB relay team. Phenomenal ride by the team to go 1 better than last year. The team spirit between the riders is clear. They have responded to the critics of a manager they all respect

World CX Champs relay start list. Zoe has watched Sanne Cant race since Zoe was 9 or 10 years old, wanting to be like her. Now they are in the same race. Never even dreamed of this. Prediction: Belgium, France, Canada (Holmgren will be on the U23 podium too)

Bikes put back together in 25 mins. Only need to attach wheels, pedals and rear mech. It will take longer to return the rented boxes

So with the National Trophy being cancelled again at the last minute, there needs to be a decision plan in place to take this out of the hands of the organisers so that people are not put in danger because they think they need to attend a bike race.

Karl Roche @karlroche.bsky.social · 05/01/2025

Woke up this morning to an email saying the race was cancelled due to weather conditions. As an Amber Weather Warning was out perhaps they should think about this ahead of time?

Karl Roche @karlroche.bsky.social · 04/01/2025

Back home and not going to the final round of the Cyclocross National Trophy in Bradford. Been sick for the last few days, Zoe not 100% after her illness too. We got half way last night and I just couldn't do anymore. Plus predicted heavy snow and freezing rain it seems best to pass this time.

@roadcc.bsky.social AJ Cycles in Rushden closing down. Friend told to pick up bike today as doors are closing

Looking at Michael Vanthourenhout's shoes, they are the latest Shimano S-Phyre XC903's with the Li2 Boa - three broken boa's so far. Nys had an issue today too, same shoes. I don't quite remember so many shoe issues in a season. Just ordered a repair kit for the kids now.

Karl Roche @karlroche.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

So happy to get these photos from @tonke.bsky.social so I could get a glimpse of Zoe's race at Zonhoven. 1st race in Dublin was quite intimidating for her but she had a great result at Hulst and battled hard after a bad crash to regain a lot of places at Zonhoven. Wish I could have been there

An evening spent jet washing Zoe's dirty kit. Last time wearing Kalas.

Big thank you to @tonke.bsky.social and @macfly.chouchoutes.cc for connecting me to the junior women's cyclo-cross race at Zonhoven so I could see my daughter race. 🙏 The neighbours might be wondering what all that french was 🤣
