Welcome to the first post of my blog. This blog is my opportunity to share my experiences as I move from the comfort of youth racing to the tough demands of junior racing.
2019 has been a year of mixed emotions throughout the year with illness and bad luck to true high points, hopefully the high points can remain and if possible rise higher.
My name is Lance Childs, I’m currently 16 years old and I ride for Velo Club Londres (VCL) I have been racing since the age of 7 years old for my former club Thanet Road Club and I made the switch to VCL on 10th of March 2018.
Recently, I have found my form thanks to top class coaching from my coach Tim Ramsden of Blackcat Cycle Coaching. I’m perfoming well at the moment with wins at the last 2 races I entered at Cyclopark, either side of the National Road Champs (Which didnt go my way, with a crash in the recon)
With the Track National Championships coming up in early August, now is a good time for you to follow my journey up to the Track Nationals and beyond. Hopefully there will be many exciting and amazing experiences to update you on in the future.
Stay tuned for more!
