Quite an impressive family.

Now if I had only tried a bit harder when I was younger.

    Admire her mental toughness and determination at such a young age. Evidently has been brought up and disciplined well. :)
  • I bet she doesn't post 'what polish/how often should I clean my bike' threads.

    I suspect that the whole family turning up at the start of an event is enough to put any aspiring "wannabey" poseur off their cornflakes.

    Appears to be strength in depth - more here http://www.strivecycling.com/id8.html

    Dad must have a good job to be able to finance the cycling kit and equipment for that lot.

    Must get out on my bike more ..... if only we had west coast USA weather over here (there's my excuse!)

    Now where did I put my sunglasses .....

    Moral of the story - as a bloke - never tell a girl she can't do that ... because she will just do her best to prove you wrong - and usually succeed ..
    200 miles though ... I've not hit the century yet :( Must do that this year.

    I feel sorry for the youngest, only son with 5 older sisters. Por kid
    Life isnt like a box of chocolates, its like a bag of pic n mix.
  • It's pathetic. She's obviously cheating by being light and fit and incredibly determined in a superhuman sort of way. Disgusting example to set to other children.
