General News

There may be just a few senior members of the club who remember Trevor, but sadly we must report his recent passing at his home in Buntingford. He had not fully recovered since he suffered a serious fall earlier this year.
Trevor joined us from the Herts. & Essex Wheelers in 1958 and with his wife, Barbara, they were active members of our club well in to the 1960s, when they rode club and open time trials and took part in club runs and most social events.

Congratulations to Peter Walton and Martin Wheeler.

Congratulations to Peter Walton and Martin Wheeler.

Your club is one of the few to organise a full road race. This is quite a spectacle with motorcycle escort, cars carrying the British Cycling "Commissaire" and providing race service, and marshals at road junctions. There will be about 60 riders completing 7 laps of a course near Codicote - 63 miles in total.
We organise all of this - specifically John Pearson and Paul Stewart organise it but they need help from Club members! Please read John's message below and see if you can help, even in a small way.

Another still but chilly Sunday morning.  81” rest gear for people who have raced and scrubbers for non racers.
Tony managed to take back time from Alex from the first out of season event, so now all will be decided on the hill climb next week.
Valdis won the scrubbers.
