On the 31 July 2020, Vakis Paraskeva and fellow RDCC member Andrew McKenzie successfully completed an Everesting on Box Hill Surrey on the UK's 3rd hottest day ever recorded, read on to find out how we did it...
Since the lifting of restrictions, our first major event was our very own round London ride, based on the London Ultra. A tough 300KM route with nearly 3,000 meters of climbing it isn't for the faint hearted.
Meeting at Coffee Active at 8am on Sunday morning for our regular first Sunday of the month meet up ride with our friends at Pedal Active. Great turn out as usual despite the weather with 14 riders heading out in total.
Finally the sun was out the roads were dry and we could enjoy a Sunday social without getting soaking wet and a filthy bike needing a deep clean at the end of it!
I can't believe its nearly time for the RDCC 2020 Mallorca trip, it just seems like yesterday when we were on the Mallorca Shuttle bus heading for Pollenca, when I lost my jacket (birthday present from the wife), lost my cycling cap and spend a week living above an Indian restaurant and we were still in the EU!
