Winter Sports @ THE WHEATSHEAF INN

As you look around the pub, you may notice many pictures and artefacts to do with winter sports. This is because all types of winter sports are close to the hearts of all the Dimblebee family. Richard's son, Chris, spent 3 years as a ski instructor at Mayrhofen and long before many ski lifts were put up Richard used to enjoy traversing the Alps.

Richard himself was given the rare privilege in 1984 of being invited to train on a bobsleigh team under the pupilage of the Swiss bobsleigh champion Erick Scharer. During this time he met many other champions from that year, at the St. Moritz bobsleigh Club.
