Positive thoughts for Charlie

[Andrew G]

I discovered this sad news today. A number of us raced with Charlotte (Charlie) Easton, nee Blackman, at Palace or in the odd TT. A very talented young woman who used to dominate the Palace women's crit normally lapping all bar one or two women and often more than once. She raced at elite womens level.

Sadly she has breast cancer and is undergoing very tough treatment. My thoughts are with her and her family as she battles the disease. I'm sure she'll be fighting it the way she raced, hard and without compromise.

You can read her blog below.

It has been a hard few years for the family as you can see from the fundraising page below. No family deserves that kind of misfortune.
