With the race season almost upon us, many serious athletes’ winter training is now reaching its peak; late February/early March is often a time for racers to jump on a plane bound for warmer climates, as a means to escape the usual shoddy British weather. 

The Honda TT legends are a Motorcycling team of exceptionally talented racers, including 19 time Isle of Man TT winner, John McGuiness, TT fastest newcomer in 2011, Simon Andrews, and 2 time TT winner, Cameron Donald, formed to contest the 2012 Endurance World Championship a series of 8 and 24hour team races on some of the world most famous circuits. 

TORQ features in Outdoor Fitness magazine this month where the subscriber is offered £38 worth of TORQ products free of charge if they subscribe with the magazine. 

After an exceptional performance at the 2012 London Olympics, finishing 8th in both the 5000 metres and 10,000 meters, with huge improvements on her personal best times, Julia rounded up 2012 rather tired; having raced close to 70 kilometres on the track, compared to just 17 kilometres in 2011. 

Here at TORQ, we have been proud to support the Matrix Prendas women’s cycling team in 2012 and we are pleased to announce that they will continue to be TORQ Fuelled during the 2013 season. 

This week saw the launch of TORQ Running at the Running Show at Sandown Park, Esher. 

TORQ Fuelled, Wiggle rider, Matt Page, recently took on a rather arduous bout of racing after the World MTB Solo Championships were cancelled at the last minute. 

 TORQ-fuelled Scott UK rider, Mountain bike legend and all round nice guy, Nick Craig, recently headed to Malaysia to take on the Langkawi International Mountain Bike Challenge; a gruelling 7day stage race. 

In the same way that we’ve recently re-sized the TORQ bar so that it fits in with our new TORQ Fuelling System, we’ve re-opened the TORQ Recovery file and after hours of scrutiny and development by the TORQ team, we have developed the new thoroughly comprehensive TORQ Recovery System. 

Matt Page is a UK professional endurance MTB rider with the European 24-hour Title to his name.

We realise that this is very late notice, but consistent with every product launch we’ve ever had (we use the Cycle Show at the NEC every year to launch our new products) the deadline became so tight that we didn’t want to announce that we were launching anything until we had the packaging in our hands!
