The British Heart Foundation (BHF) South Downs Way Randonnee 1 meant a 06:00 start from Winchester for the 100 and 65 mile riders. The route across Hampshire and Sussex follows the path of the longest continuous bridleway in the country with very little road cycling this route is for the serious cross country rider. The target for the 65 mile course was a finish at the Devils Dyke near Brighton while to 100 mile ride see the participants heading on towards the finish at Eastbourne.

The 35 mile route started at the Devils Dyke and the finish at Eastbourne was no less demanding if a little more civilised with a mid-day starting time.

If you think you have what it takes then why not login to bhf.org.uk/events and look at signing up for the second 100 mile event later in July.  There is a competition with a great prize for the person who raises the most sponsorship on the rides, find out more at joy-riders.com.

The pictures taken were the 100 and 65 mile routes only and the photographer was at the top of Annington Hill approximately 57 miles from the start before the checkpoint at Steyning.

Audi took an unexpected win in the LMP1 category at the 76th Le Mans 24hr this year beating the Peugeot, that had proven so quick in qualifying, into 2nd and 3rd places. The GT1 Corvette / Aston dual was as usual a close fought affair but for the second year in a row the Aston team sporting the Gulf livery won the day. LMP2 honours went to Porsche RS Spyder who took 1st and 2nd place While Pescarolo-Judd took 3rd, GT2 saw Ferrari 430GT take the first 4 spots, a good days racing for the prancing horse.

For those of you who have not made the pilgrimage to this historic race we have compiled some picture of the racing and also some of the 258.500 people who attend this year, the pictures.

The Keevil 10k and kids fun run was held at the still active Keevil airfield, but luckily all flights were suspended as the competitors raced around the perimeter track in quite hot and humid conditions. The race winner set a blistering pace that many are sure will remain unbeaten for some time to come.

Not everyone was out to break records but most were out to obtain pb's some just started younger than others and some were just there for the fun.

The Winchester Fast Twitch is the second in a series of triathlon's expertly organised by the Conceptsport team. With events held in Dorset, Wiltshire and Hampshire there is plenty of variety to keep the appetite for Triathlon events well and truly satisfied.

The event at Winchester was a complete contrast to that held two weeks prior at Hungerford where the competitors endured near blizzard conditions. Sunday was dry and not too warm and the large field was proof of the growing popularity of these events.

It is important to know that at no time were any animals put in danger, the gorillas are very careful not to damage the local wildlife or competitors.

Oh and did we say it was muddy?

The Terminator is known for the tough demanding course and this year was in danger of being cancelled due to the lack of bad weather, the organiser seriously thought it was going to be just too easy to earn your shirt. At the last minute with some quick thinking and help from some serious wildlife (namely the addition of two crocodiles at the swamp, and one at the shoe wash) the course reputation was back on track.

A staggering 1001 competitors took up the challenge and that was not the only record to be beaten as a blistering pace was set by the front runners and a new course record of 1hr 12m and a few seconds was set.

For most people it is the competition that is the driving force, with the Terminator it is the surviving that is far more important, will you "Be Back? "
