He raises his head above the parapet - checks the coast is clear. Dons his false wig and comedy nose and climbs into his bath chair to be wheeled back out into the sunshine. Somewhere along the line the Rocket has managed to find his old quill and sends us his latest missive from the front line.

The last league race of the season has finally happened and the circle is complete. A win to start the season and a win to finish. What could possibly be better than that? Oh, I don't know... maybe the league title or something like that maybe... Yippee!

It's been a few weeks since the last league race sports fans. We've had the European Championships in between but those mere mortals amongst us have been waiting for the final two league races. Here, then, is the first.

We've been to a few races recently. Time for a quick discussion about the last one.

It was a hot day by the eerily quite London Airport. And many things were being put right at long last.

It just got better after all. Who'd have thought. Second in the 500m and third in the 1,000m giving us second overall in the open cup at the nationals in Nottingham last week-end. Superb.
Apparently a full report is on the way but edited highlights can be found by clicking here.

Hold the front page. Batchworth finally make it to another league event. Royal Albert Docks gave us another couple of second place finishes to add to this years not so grand total.
Not only that but there's a brief race report to match. Surely it can't get better than this?!

Golly. It has been quiet, hasn't it. Many apologies. A whistle stop tour of our year to date follows, if you're remotely interested.

Having press ganged the whole club into action we finally got out to another event and did rather well at the Nationals. Do you really want to read the report...

No reports? No results? What's been happening?
The scores on the league table tell a sorry tale but we're on the mend and things can only get better :-)
Read an excuse or two...
