The ever popular Ellesmere event, the Shropshire Triathlon (a favourite with TORQ) has a long and illustrious history, indeed an Olympian still holds the course record, and what a result Sam achieved in her first race for the team…

This race also doubled as a qualifier for the European Triathlon Championships to be held in 2017. 

Most of the TORQ MTB team took to the hills in the 2nd round of the Scott MTB Marathon in Rhayader, North Wales, and once again there was plenty of black and orange at the pointy end…

There are five Scott MTB Marathons this year, run on courses all over the country, but Rhayader is an ‘old faithful’ and awash with climbs and testing singletrack – well it is North Wales! 

This was a great weekend for Phil in Monte Gordo, Portugal, his 1st time pulling on a GB vest for the Cross Country Relay, but he knew it wasn’t going to be a walk in the park. 

Mel puts in an impressive ride to finish thrid fastest and 6th on standard at these championships…

This year the highly competitive VTTA 10 Mile TT Championships were to be held near Nottingham.  

With an eye on the next Commonwealth Games, Louise knew the time had come again to put down benchmark times for the squad. 

Maddy took to the line at this historic event and pulled it together for a good finish. 

TORQ Performance Tri Team’s Iain Robertson put in a solid performance at the British Sprint Triathlon to take victory in Age Group and was right up there in the overall classification…

Big Cow Sprint at Emberton Park for the British AG Sprint Champs was Iain’s first race of the season, so would be a good test to see where he was at with his training and an opportunity to try out some new kit from our generous sponsors. 

Alex Welburn has had an exceptional season so far this year, consistently finishing in the top 10 at national level, up against some full time riders and, now he has finished studying for a degree in Sports Science and has more time available to train, he has more to give.  

Ultra & Marathon specialist, Sally Ford heads back to tackle the brutal Brathay Marathon, one of the hardest Road Marathons in the UK. 

Following a week of hard training, Jan had a choice: start the season with an FTP test in the garage, or a TT – it was a tough decision. 

The team headed up to Dalby Forest, Yorkshire, for Round 3 of the National XC Series on the former World Cup Course, where a high calibre field, including Commonwealth Games winner Anton Cooper and 2012 Olympic Bronze Medalist Marco Fontana, saw the riders fired up for a good race.  

Getting up at the crack of dawn, Lou Haston travelled down to Manchester with her Scottish Cycling team mates to ride the ACT Easter Monday track meet.
