Club runs - 13th October
Posted: 07 Oct 2019 08:59
New club run season has started and Dave Cole has already gone into a commanding lead in the Club run competition. With Dave being like a Kenyan long distance runner, he'll be difficult to claw back once he's on the back straight, and the bookies now have him as Evens fav for next year's trophy, but as they say, it's early doors at the moment, so there is still a slight chance someone may be playing the long game...
Just 18 or so riders out at the weekend, with remarkably, no A-run for the first time in living memory...the last time there was no A-run was presumably due to the penny farthing shop being closed due to the war... but I guess Philip Whiteman's Saturday Audax was the real reason, but a big thanks to Phil and all the helpers for putting on a great event, with excellent food at the end for returning cyclists...and it remained dry! The Kiddy Killer audax next July is already live on Audax UK, and the Sunrise/Snowdrop will appear on the Aukweb (Audax UK) site very shortly, so I'll publicise it via sending pigeons, emus and lovelorn kittiwakes to every house in the Midlands when it does.
I'll give the C-run 5 out of 10 on Sunday, we had the venue and the support (Pete Norman) already arranged but no one stepped forward to lead, so Pete did it himself...please give him a week off by personning-up this week, please.
Anyway, this week's rides are:
A: Destination TBC - Neil Lynch
B: Volunteer required
C: Worcester Country Park - https://ridewithgps.com/routes/10976764 - Finbarr Costigan
