Ian Cammish: Time Trialling 'Legend' / 'icon' / 'wannabe' / 'has-been' / whatever floats your boat.
The what, why and wherefore of British Time Trialling as seen through the eyes of me … Ian Cammish, holder of over 50 National Cycling Championships and Records. Or ... the aftermath of an extended college project, “how to create a web-site” by son Jack, aged 17, Hills Road College, Cambridge. (I think winning and breaking over 50 National Championships and records were easier!).
“I could write a book” I said. But Peter Whitfield, author of Twelve Champions, The Condor Years and more, told me “there’s no money in it” so for anyone who’s interested here’s a totally free, unexpurgated insight into time trialling through the ages from yours truly … Ian Cammish aged 55 ¼.
Over the forty-plus years I've been cycling, a lot of influential people have helped me achieve what I set out to do but inevitably, over the period of time, we have all each gone our own separate ways. This is just one way of expressing my gratitude to you all. If it also brings back fond memories of yesteryear to any time trialling enthusiasts who happen to stumble on the site, then so much the better :-)
PDQ Helium disc wheel.
For more than ten years I have been using and testing equipment I am prepared to brand as PDQ.
Close liaison with my suppliers has enabled me to provide top quality products at affordable prices.
Along the way, I have been pushing my suppliers to provide lighter products … without, in any way, compromising the strength and reliability of the individual components.
One particular item I was keen to see ‘evolve’ was the PDQ PB disc wheel which have proven to be extremely reliable due to the very high quality of the materials used and the processes carried out during their construction.
I have, however, always been aware of the fact that the PDQ PB disc is only as light as the ‘big’ disc names eg FFWD, ProLite, Selcoff, Hed etc weighing in at about 1200 gms or so. The objective has always been to get this under the 1000 gm barrier.
At last we (that is my suppliers and I) have managed to achieve this!
Say hello to the NEW PDQ Helium disc wheel.
Stock is now available for IMMEDIATE dispatch. All wheels have been digitally weighed and ALL are guaranteed to be under 999 gms. These will be sold on a ‘lightest first’ basis so the sooner you order, the lighter your disc will be. If you would like to know the lightest currently in stock, just drop me an email on ian_cammish@hotmail.com
