I've had the pleasure of meeting Charlie at various CTC events - a lovely bloke.
Said his wife "raced a bit"!
Will hear it this time, thanks. Love Maxine Peake and Beryl Burton is my all time cycling hero.
I caught the last 20 minutes today, I'll catch the rest up tomorrow.
In my mind the best British racing cyclist ever of either sex
Saw the stage play at the West Yorkshire Playhouse last year after the Grand Depart, it was fantastic!
Will listen on iPlayer tomorrow. Cheers!
I was her minute man once in a time trial in about 1968. She pulled out for some reason but still came to the start and gave the 15 yr old LittleJohn some nice encouragement.
Thanks for posting this.
There was an interesting article on Countryfile last year about her so i knew something about her achievements. A good listen though and definitely recommended.
Normalising average male and female performance, the greatest cyclist to walk this planet?
