When Nadine's boyfriend joined the club to improve his cycling for triathlons, Nadine decided to come along too and so by chance she started cycling. 2003 - In her first full season of 2003, Nadine's successes included: LC&AC women's champion at all distances; Club records at 5, 10, 15, 22 and 30 miles as well as the hillclimb; Female winner of four open events - Rockingham Forest hilly, 45 Road Club 10, both LC&AC open 10 mile time trials; Five second places - Corinium CC 10, Corinium CC 25, Gloucester City CC 30, Northampton & District CA 10, Chester RC 50. 2004 - Realising that she had a bit of the 'je ne sais quoi' for cycling, Nadine decided to do some training for the 2004 season. So during the winter of 2003/2004 she was to be found chasing the 'fast' LC&AC club group around the lanes of Warwickshire on Sunday mornings. In 2004 season the training paid off and Nadine's success's included: LC&AC women's champion at all distances. New LC&AC ladies club records at 5, 10, 15, 22, 25, 30 and 50 miles as well as the hillclimb. Female winner of ten open events and second lady prize in a further eight open events. By the end of the season Nadine was really flying; setting a superb pb of 22 minutes and 43 seconds for ten miles, which combined with her season's best 25 and 50 mile times made Nadine the 2004 CTC Ladies BAR champion. Nadine also achieved top ten finishes in other national competitions such as the British Time Trial Championship and the Rudy Project Time Trial Series.
