    Hi folks,

    Well we have come to the end of the evening events with tonight's last 10. The evening looked like it would be quite tough with a cross tailwind out and subsequent tough return, but in reality the wind seemed to drop to almost nothing for most, resulting in many PB's or seasons best for the course. Although dry at first it did start to drizzle a little for the later starters. A pretty large number turned out too - although the majority were not club members!

    Hi folks,

    Tonights event attracted a big field; 30 riders, many of them looking for a good ride to pick up the club Handicap 10 Trophy. The weather wasn't great, but wasn't bad - a tough headwind out but that meant a nice fast return and it wasn't cold. We were also back on the full length course again after the roadworks of the last 3 weeks.

    Hi folks,

    Well tonight we turned up at the HQ... only to hear from riders coming from the Dagnall direction that there were roadworks with traffic lights up this side of the village going around the corner into the village. With no possibility of even running an emergency short course we had no choice but to cancel. It would have been a good event as I reckon a good 30 plus riders had turned up!

    Hi folks,

    Tonight's event was again held on the shortened course due to the roadworks. The evening was reasonably warm but quite windy. But luckily it was a cross-tailwind on the outward direction that is a little more helpful, and with a low pressure system (that was creating the winds and the many showers earlier in the day) meant that most people were doing times almost the same as last week that was thought to be a good day. Sadly the weather likely did put off a number of people so numbers were well down on normal with only 10 taking the start line.

    Hi folks,

    We started tonight on the shortened course (approx 7.3 miles) due to the road works that will result in a nice smooth surface for the fist mile or so on the normal course. The roadworks are scheduled to last 3 weeks so we will be using this course and the earlier 7pm start time until then. It is important to note that it will take over 5 minutes to get to the start from the HQ - so leave at least 10 minutes beforehand - traffic lights can add an extra couple of minutes!
