Liking my new Sidis!

By Hannah Rich - Horizon Fitness Racing Team

Since my first race back at the Crit Nationals a few weeks back, I've been getting stuck into some real serious training to get my fitness back for the Tour of Holland which starts next Monday. I went to the Crit Nationals after only training for 5 days after having 6 weeks off because of my knee injury. Thinking that I would be able to get by fine, but was wrong and I SUFFERED!

After that race I had to re-assess the situation and think about how I was planning on getting fit for the Tour of Holland and the Commonwealth Games, and realised some hard training was in order to get really fit!

Since riding again I haven't really had any problems from my knees and my new Sidi shoes have worked a treat as they fit perfectly and it was my previous shoes which had done the damage so I am really happy with the new sponsors!

I had a bike fit as well to try and help with the problem and 'touch wood', everything seems to be really good at the moment. My next race is the Welsh Crit Champs before moving on to the Tour of Holland which is going to be a really hard 7-day stage race! Then moving on to the track nationals before heading out to India for the Commonwealth Games, which should be a really good experience.

I am really looking forward to it!
