One of the favourites for a medal in the British Time Trial Championships, Matt Brottrill (Drag2Zero) will not be racing due illness.
![]() |
Matt emailed VeloUk to say “I’m really sorry to say I’m not going to be able to ride the Championships as I’ve come down with tonsillitis.â€
Matt explained how the illness has left him with no energy and feeling quite wasted. “I can’t tell you how gutted I am after putting so much into the preparation. The numbers in training from the last two week’s, were the best I’ve done all season.â€|
“But I can’t change that now. It’s been one hell of a season, winning my first National senior championship and medals at every distance. Plus over 20 wins for the year. And to top it all off a 46 min 25mile trial ( 5th fastest ever recorded in the UK)
Matt and his wife are also awaiting new arrivals in the family with his wife expecting twins in September 13th and already having a daughter aged four, Matt knows the months ahead are going to be busy!
