Spence gets a Warning- Sunday 6 February

A small but elite group of riders ventured out in windy and damp conditions. Heading towards Southport Andy Grice and Pete Leonard met Steve Dufell, Martin Phillips, Steve Ginty and Spencer Coltman at Longton village. After turning in the road Pete was immediately struck by the length of time it took for him to get on the wheel of the fast moving foursome and after regaining his breath realised that there was a half wheeling duel taking place between Spence and Steve Duffell. At well over 20 mph the sextet sped through Preston, Spence giving scant regard to anybody caught out be a red light. This general trend continued all the way to Waddington. In the cafe Spence was given the verbal yellow card for his determination to ride the rest of the group into a state of exhaustion and on the way back to Preston a truce was called. After Chipping the heavens opened and Pete punctured ( everybody including Spence waited for him to change his inner tube- is this a first?????) and things got pretty miserable. Spence – this is your last warning, any more of your antics and you will  find your tyres deflated and your brakes adjusted so they rub on the rims.

p.s Rumour has it that he will be back to work soon and this may give us mere mortals a chance.
