    Continuing on in our fast-food series, here’s fast-food number 3. No, we’re not talking about MacDonald’s or BK, there’s a different meaning here. For a food to be fast it must contain bags of carbohydrate with as little fat as possible. A moderate amount of protein wouldn’t go amiss either (this tends to happen as a matter of course), but basically the higher the carbs and lower the fat the better.

    Once again, two weeks before the 1st NPS in Thetford a bunch of the TORQ-tuned popped up to North Wales with their coach (I guess that’s me) for a weekend of hard physical training to put the proverbial icing on the cake after a hard winter’s graft in the saddle. Regular readers of the TORQ pages will know how physically tough these trips are for my riders, so I won’t waffle on about the same old magic. If you’d like to find out more, take a look at the following links:

    • TORQ social 2002 (well perhaps this one wasn't so tough)
    • Pre-season Snowdonia trip for the TORQ-tuned
    • We’re back from the first madformountainbiking.com weekend
    • TORQ training camp 1 is a success
