The Beacon Message Board

Despite Beacon's excellent Sunrise/Snowdrop audax on Saturday, there was still a healthy turnout for the Sunday club runs...chapeau for those who rode on both days, whether on the club runs, the Alcester TT or on solo leg looseners.

This week's club runs are:

A: Ironbridge YHA - James Tate
B: Warwick - Paul Johnson
C: Halfpenny Green - Pete Marshall

Weather looks OK and you should all be ready well prepared for nice roads after the Sunrise, so I'll take the C run on a mystery tour to Halfpenny Green to see the helicopters, truncated at Kinver if weather turns out to be rubbish.
Compact Gears recommended for the over 40's.

Celebrate the Beacons own Omloop Het Halfpenny Green.

What time is the c run meeting at the pub?

James, we meet at 9ish for a 9-15 start

A perfectly paced B run with no wrong turns at least it was sunny.

Very small A run to Ironbridge YHA today, just 3 of us. Nice fast route with plenty of climbing...

Everyone was going so well I put an extra 10 km loop up to Shatterford, this may have proved a little too much for some 😨 90+ km and 1500 m of climbing is perhaps over the top in February but it was such a nice day I get carried away.
Hope it doesn't put people of C rides and forces them onto B rides for a rest 😊

Thanks for a great first run out pete
