Rider Cup Facebook competition starts today.

There's Tony's trials, your ransom rave, and winner of the week.

And speaking of winners, let's kick things off with the champ.

Three come on, I've won my first ever running race of any sort, I think.

I don't think I've ever crossed the line first in a running race.

Now, they do say if you can't beat them, start your own one so having done a load of park runs in my life and never got anywhere near the front

We started I say we Rowan and Carly from Bolton they started Bolton bottom part run it was the first ever run on

Saturday I arranged for the weather gods to dish out some horrendous weather which

meant lots of people didn't show up so there was 61 starters and I finished first.

Woo!

And you are the champ!

It was good, it's an odd feeling, I have to say, I've never ever done it before.

It may not happen again and it was cool but it was kind of cool I mean you can

only beat who's there right and it was it was good fun I really really enjoyed it had

quite a good run around 1910 I think on a fairly hilly 5k route which for me was a pretty good outing so I was dead

dead pleased. What did you do when you crossed the line did you kind of put two arms in the

air did you turn around do a little bit of a winner's shuffle what happened?
