Wearing National hill climb jersey in Shap fell hill climb, May 2014
Who ate all the pies (cucumber sandwiches)?
The National jersey is close to the kit of Sri Chinmoy Cycling Team, just an extra red line. It was just hard getting a skinsuit thin enough.

It’s the hill climb season again.
Thanks to Bhima of Buxton CC for this photo. It was taken of Mow Cop on a rainy day.

The film Challenging Impossibility is coming to Bristol in March 2012.

It will be an exciting exhibition of Sri Chinmoy’s weightlifting equipment, with also several screenings of the film Challenging Impossibility.
I was once lifted by Sri Chinmoy, (a relative meagre 135lbs). In the above photo, Sri Chinmoy is lifting 200lbs with each hand from a seated posture. This 400lb lift was during a long weightlifting exhibition in New York, I was also lucky enough to attend. There was perhaps 500 people in the room, watching the 70 year old Sri Chinmoy, lift weights which really defied his age and build.

It’s the hill climb season! This is in the Lake District near Honister Pass.

I conquered Hardnott pass from Western side – with 30% hairpins – one of the hardest hills, I’ve ever done.
Hill Climb training – Have a go!

Here we are presenting a ‘Torch Bearer Award’ to Mark Williams and his ‘mindfulness team’ for their contribution in helping people overcome long-term depression through meditation / mindfulness. For me it is a rare outing into a jacket.

It was great to have the World Harmony Run come through Oxford.
