All go for Perfs pedal this weekend
According to an article on the website portsmouth.co.uk organiser Mick Waite is confident its all go for the Perfs pedal this weekend. After storms and heavy rain have battered the south this week, the organiser said to portsmouth.co.uk “I was out there on Sunday and then went out again on Tuesday after the storm and it is fine”.
“I have one pothole and one puddle to deal with, I think. There is a lot of grit around and there will be some puddles but it’s February and it has been raining a lot. They are all experienced riders, so they will know to use the proper wheels and tyres for this type of race. If you are putting your best racing tyres on, you might not get very far!”
