Stephen "Corby" Corbyn
In a slight twist to our usual rider interviews we put our questions to a young up and coming
event organiser...
Event management can be a thankless task. Everyone turns up without pre-entering
causing queues at sign on; the organiser gets pulled left and right with minor problems.
People expect luxuries such as toilets or even showers! The prizes are never good
enough, the local dog walkers complain and tear down the course markings on race
morning and to top it all, every one of us is an expert! I got Stephen Corbyn, virgin
organiser of the Welsh Dragon Series to give us an interview and an insight into
event management for the inexperienced.

Lee Williams
Cyclenoodle managed to catch up with up and coming Elite Cross Country Racer Lee
Williams fresh after his win in the Welsh National Championships at Pontypool Park,
South Wales. Lee has developed over the last few seasons from a shy retiring young
racer who would often turn up to races in his Grey jogging bottoms, pull his old
bike out of the car and quietly go about destroying most of the competition. Today
he is very much a rising talent, sponsored, supported and competing on the World
stage with the very best.

Billy-Joe Whenman
You have just had your biggest win to date in the London National Criterium, How
did it feel to cross the line first in front of such a huge crowd?
At 1st I thought I had left my sprint to late, as Liam had a 200-yard lead on me
into the last corner! So to pull 200yards out of the bag and get myself a bike length
in front, well apart from wining my 1st national road race, and standing on that
top spot in front of such a big crowd, Words cant explain it!! It’s Amazing! You
know you’ve done your days work!!
