‘I race in the 3rd CATS which is …. Yeah you guessed right!…. 3rd Category Cyclists (next is 2nd…. 1st then the elites!) you gain your 3rd CAT license by racing 4th and scoring (when I started racing road bikes after retiring from MX in 2012) 10 points. Points are awarded: 1st = 10 ; 2nd = 9; 3rd = 8; 4th = 7… Down to 1 point for 10th, so you get the idea? After my first race I was hooked! With a 9th place finish I was off the mark! A few false starts later I managed to score a further 8 points and another 3rd place a week later! 3rd CATS here I come! 
Last season was totally wrecked with a back operation in February (6 screws and 2 rods in my spine racing Moto-X bikes for 15 years will do that to you!), so this season I have returned back to where it all started, The Hillingdon Winter Champs! After a great winter training indoors and outdoors (With Mr Yeoman and my Specialized Team Mates Luke Wallis and Alex Jones) I was back up to speed! I’ve had a mixed bag of results but now in the second half of the championships I’ve scored a 2nd, 9th and a 4th so I’m “Happy” but that first win is still not there yet!
My favourite way to train is miles on the bike. It’s a given! Weather it be in the sunshine and hills or the wind and rain and flat! Trainings training! And I love my bike… Second to that is core work, DeadLifts, squats, burpees, Snatch and PowerCleans! All great fun!’ ‘
Good luck with your racing and training Kevin, but seriously, buy some Viceroys kit 😉
