WIV-SUNGOD BLUE BROTHERS

As every professional athlete knows, preparation is the key, down to every small detail: rest, diet and the right balance of training. Get that right and the results will come. If Euan Macleod was in charge of pre-race meals at Wiv-SunGod, rider Jim Brown explains, the results of what has been the team’s most successful season to date might have been different.

“Macleod is a funny guy, he’s always on form. He’s hilarious and I’ve got so many good stories involving him,” Brown says. “I remember once he was making himself an omelette; most people would whisk their eggs but not him. He put them in a blender along with some ham and made the most disgusting pink coloured thing I’ve ever seen!” Brown adds.

Reflecting on this season, his teammate, Matt Bostock says: “I think the main thing is that we’ve cut out the excuses as a group. I think we’re at a point now where if you don’t have the legs, you don’t have the legs and you just say you’ve had a bad day. That’s what we ask for now, there’s no more, ‘I had the wrong milk in my porridge’!”

Led by Tim Elverson, Wiv-SunGod are on the way up. After a successful 2019, the Hampshire-based team bounced back post Covid to fly into 2022 racking up a series of impressive results. After the pandemic, various teams have struggled to bounce back, but Wiv-SunGod rode straight into form and in some style too.
