Newcastle cycling should be very proud of all the past results.
......HOWEVER.....Its all relative really, like RH I plan on making all my glories in the Veterans category.
I had thought Rob Hadley had won noteworthy events before he was a Masters/Vet cat racer? I would think Rob has superior bragging rights than most around these parts, and yet if you asked him who the best racer around these parts would be he'd probably say Col Appleyard, who was left off many people's lists.
In any event, it is interesting that those who have had their major (and by that I exclude club racing) success as juniors seem to be running down those who have had most of their success as Vets. Aren't Vets and Juniors really, when you get through the ego crapola, just age categories? Why would being a successful junior be more or less poseworthy or esteemed than a successful vet?
