Hello, many thanks for your swift reply. As per
WP:COI, this page needs to declare that some editors have a close connection. The information recently added all looks highly plausible and well-presented, thanks. However, as per
WP:V you need to provide some reliable sources. Thanks.

Hello,
I am happy to put in sources when we can find them - some will be tricky as we have offline copies of old races etc.
Can we revert the changes back that we made and I will start putting sources and a reference of who we both are into the page?
I'd suggest you start off by adding a statement to this Talk page that you have a connection. You need to read and understand
Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. And then
Template:Edit COI. If you simply revert back what's been removed, with no sources, you're very likely to see it all removed again for the same reason, but with the added warning that you are "edit warring". Thanks.

Hi Martin,
Thank you. I have added "personal connections to this page" on the talk page.
I will try to revert the page back and load in sources.
If that fails I will try the Edit COI functionality but I am currently unsure how to use this for some of the more complicated entries - career summary, race results. Seems easy to do for paragraph / text changes.
