Tomorrow is the official opening of the MTB trails at Newbold Comyn in Leamington Spa – and Owen is the poster boy for the racing! The trails have been open for a few years, and are one of our regular haunts, but the cafe and bike shop only opened this summer, marking the competition of the project, so they are having an event to celebrate! Part of that event is a race down the blue trail.

Owen ended up being on the poster, as at a recent off road time trial event there he had a tame photographer (me) and I was asked to supply a photo for the poster. As Owen is the poster boy he will be racing, I might even do a couple of laps too! We will both also be photographing, and it should be a fun day.
