There’s a lot going on in our City centres these days what with the Qashqai, the Lisbon downtown and the Monmouth farmers market (sheep are on special at the moment). The City is fast becoming the new mountain.

The Lisboa downtown race kicks off on May 17th with 60 riders ragging it through the Lisbon neighbourhood from the São Jorge’ Castle to the Largo Terreiro do Trigo in front of about 20000 spectators, actually about half of them are probably there just doing some grocery shopping.

Steve Peat has ruled this event winning it six times, will Peaty make it lucky sevens? Stay tuned to find out.

I love this event because it gives me the opportunity to play Petula Clarke full blast,
