When I was 26, I would jokingly refer to my bike as the CWM (Cross Wind Missile). I'm not 26 anymore...

About Me

My name is Dean Russell and I raced road bikes and some track endurance in the 1990s. I stopped racing in 1999 when I was 26. After almost thirteen years of being a lazy slug I decided to put my sorry backside onto a bike seat and have another crack at racing. This blog chronicles my journey from being completely unfit and overweight to becoming one of the oldest Elite A grade riders in Queensland...and then slipping nicely back into Masters racing.

The races so far

B grade Toowoomba club race on the new Toowoomba Criterium Circuit. Epic fail, completing 22 of the 40 minutes in the group. Found this very fast.

B grade masters at the same circuit, in the Toowoomba 2 day Open. I was in the front group of about 25, but a crash on the second last lap sent me off the track and I didn't get back on. Day 2 was a 35 lap event on a longer version of the circuit. I came 5th.
