The Halo ID Monday message is available in full this week – whether you’re a member or not.

It’s essential viewing if you want to get Tim Don‘s inside track on SLT London yesterday, where he was on top of everything as team manager of the reigning champions the Eagles.

His athletes didn’t have the best of luck in Canary Wharf and he explains how Sian Rainsley’s unfortunate crash on the bike came about while also rightly giving massive kudos to Matt Hauser for his gutsy comeback after he incorrectly had to serve a penalty.

Fair to say Tim still isn’t quite over that call and understandably so!

Both Tim and Halo ID co-founder Ian Dempsey also explain more about the community they’ve created which helps athletes from right around the globe.

And there are little nuggets from inside the sport, Cassandre Beaugrand moving to the UK anyone?

It’s fascinating getting the perspective from right at the heart of the action and well worth a watch – you can access it by simply clicking here.
