Famous visitors

Johan Museeuw

We had a visit from Johan Museeuw in April 2023 - the "Lion of Flanders" Johan was one of the best Classics riders of his day, often winning prestigious races such as the Tour of Flanders and Paris - Roubaix. Also a former world road race champion he is definitely amongst the legends of the sport. 

It was a great surprise to meet him and his friends mid ride when he stopped for a coffee.

Alistair Brownlee

Needs no introduction! Multiple world and olympic triathlon champion now turning his hand to long course events. Visited us on a cold day in 2022 and enjoyed a cuppa, a pasty and our delicious fudge but don't tell his coach!

Juan Antonio Fletcher

Former Rabobank and Team Sky professional who won a 2003 Tour de France stage and was a Paris -Roubaix specialist. Presented on Eurosport notably for his pre - event course recce and post race interviews. Visited us in 2020 with his friend doing some vlogging for his social media channel.
