Did you know that Leabank Square has its very own Olympic Hopeful?!
I was talking to Kier - the amazing guy who runs the Hype! Bus that comes to Leabank Square every Saturday afternoon.
Not only does he manage the computer, internet & multi-media bus unit - but he is also in the process of setting up an incredible cycling club right here in Hackney (see: http://cyclingclubhackney.blogspot.com/)
Aaaaaaanyway - he has found a very unique talent in Rowena - the fastest person in Leabank Square!!
You might have seen her training around the square - but she's so fast - she would have been a blur.
Last week she entered the invitation 2008 Whitewebbs CC Time Trial for youths and beginners in Finsbury Park - and Kier said she did amazingly well!!
So well done Rowena! Leabank Square is very proud of you - and we want you to keep at it. We want you to represent Hackney Wick at the 2012 Olympics around the corner - and win gold!!!!

I saw her at the Finsbury Park Meet and she was brilliant.
As a beginner she has enormous talent
Can anybody sort her out with a sports grant or something? She deserves to go far and fast!!

I don't actually live in Leabank Square so I hope you don't mind me writing a comment?
I was in Finsbury Park at the 2008 Whitewebbs CC Time Trial, and I saw Rowena race. She is brilliant!!
For a newbie to have so much talent is remarkable, and I truly hope she keeps at it.
As for funding, can't Kier ask around at Sport for England to see if there is a sponsorship available for Rowena's kind of talent. She will do Leabank Square, actually, the whole od London, proud.
Go for it Rowena

Hey Rowena
I've been running this site for a couple of years now & I've never seen such a response!!
BUT come on people - leave Rowena some contact details so she can chat to you too! It's all good & well telling her how great she is (we all know THAT) - but let her put faces to names - don't be shy!!
Anyway - Rowena - well done again - & keep practicing girl. We want you to represent Leabank Square across the canal in 2012!!
