Today was an important day for the GWR Team, as they had their first training day of 2010 at Swindon Superstore. The team spent the day being fitted to their new TCR Advanced 2 team bikes provided by Giant and their new team clothing provided by Kalas. The morning was spent ensuring the position on the bike perfect, with the Swindon Cycles Superstore and the GWR team’s mechanic on hand to fine tune the bikes.

Once all the bikes and clothing had been allocated to the riders, the eight man team went on a sixty mile training ride. The team were under the watchful eye of the 2010 Director Sportif Daren Beers, who was on hand to follow the riders progress in the team car provided by Diamond health fitness. The team ran through some key drills in preparation for the 2010 season to get the new riders and support crew accustomed to each other (in advance of the season). With some high profile races already on the calendar for the GWR team in 2010 this was an opportunity to practice the difficult issues that the team may face in a race situation such as wheel changes, and feeding from the team car, in a controlled situation.

The team has bonded instantly after a successful ride and they are looking forward to making a huge impact on the 2010 race reason.
