Report:
A good crowd for the last session of the calendar year.

Our active warm up included a virtual climb up Dragon hill as the weather got in the way on Sunday. For the core of the workout we split into two parallel teams (denoted by gold or sliver tinsel) and alternated between stints at threshold and tempo - some serious work was evident tonight!

The final push took the form of a free for all 2 minute dash (aka Denchworth) and we missed the hum of Dave Talboys' machine for that one!

A shorter session overall to allow time for festive fruit punch and Phil's legendary cheese straws.

Thanks to Des and Eddie for lending technical support and to Karen our turbo captain for another excellent term.
