RIDER NEWS: Veteran stars enter British Indoor Finals
Two of the sports top veteran stars are among the latest veteran entries for the British Indoor championships, to be staged at Coventry on 2nd and 3rd January 2016, at the Sports Connexion venue.
Top Norfolk racer Paddy Wenn, one of the most popular riders on the veteran scene, has entered the championships. The Norwich rider clearly means business this winter, even undertaking a gruelling 300 plus round trip to train at the Sports Connexion track two weeks ago.
Birmingham’s rider Paul Timms (pictured in cover photo), who missed last year’s Indoor finals due to injury, is also among the starters. A former British Indoor champion, Timms has bravely battled back from injury, culminating in him winning the TLI British Vets final (over 50s) at Sheffield.
