London Phoenix has had an amazing December on the rough stuff with Jason Wright, Dan Jenkins, Geraldine Treacher, Paul Troughton and Sam Hart all putting in storming performances at this winter’s premier enduro mountain bike racing series – aka ‘the Brass Monkeys’.

While all of our brave riders have been outstanding, we can’t help but ’single-out’ Paul Toughton’s 3rd place at the first event which he rode Jedi-style on his rigid single speed(!), and Sam Hart who has been on the podium twice – the first when she out-classed none other than Olympic gold medallist Rebecca Romero to nab 3rd spot, and the the second when she took a stunning second place while on a brand new steed!

“Looks like my new bike helped alot, thanks Dad! But I then had to wear the lucky Noah’s Ark jersey (from his bike shop www.noahsark.co.uk)”

Thanks Sam’s dad, and well done everyone!!!
