These have been discussed at the Club TT Meeting and agreed there are now 2 25 mile tt's 4 9 mile circuit 2 hanbury 20's 4 hilly events remaining on the new course rather than returning to the old course there is also a 2nd hillclimb as requested between the last road event and the hc championships.We have also reduced the number of events on the Bromsgrove Highway and moved the start times to 7.30pm so it is less busy

9th May Course has been changed to K34/10D Dunnington due to clash with Wyre Forest and likelyhood of insufficent daylight for riders to complete course if there is a large turnout

Here are the timekeepers for these events

KH 10 isn't listed on the CTT site, anybody know where it is?

Thanks Brian (only just noticed this). Looks like an interesting mix and should have a bit of something for everybody.

Brian
A good programme for 2012 . I will get on with organising time keepers

Has it been decided yet which of these are club championship events?

Ed Moss · Post by **Ed Moss** » 25 Jan 2012 21:51

I'll be happy to help, although can't commit until shortly before the events.

David Cole · Post by **David Cole** » 10 Mar 2012 12:13

16 Sept Sunday HC KH12 Club 10.00 Beacon R.C.C

This is being changed to 9th September, providing the change of date is accepted by the CTT. Brian is submitting the police forms

WATCH THIS SPACE

David Cole · Post by **David Cole** » 10 Mar 2012 19:52

Because when Brian confirms CTT approval I will change the date from provisional to definite

George · Post by **George** » 11 Mar 2012 15:03

I didn't mean "Why watch this space?" I meant "Why are we changing it?"

Is the ultimate objective for it to become a summer event?

Stats · Post by **Stats** » 11 Mar 2012 16:43

It was a request made as we apparently are helping with an event so it clashes

David Cole · Post by **David Cole** » 11 Mar 2012 17:57

Sorry George
I wasn't being facetious - we changed the date because it clashes with a cyclo-cross event Jointly organised by the Redditch R & P and the Beacon. We were asked to change it because some of the cyclo-cross riders wanted to do the hill climb

No apology required, Dave; my question lacked a little precision.

I know I'm increasingly becoming a stereotypical old fuddy-duddy, but I just feel that the HC belongs in the autumn. I can understand the need to avoid a clash, but personally I'd have liked to see it put back, rather than brought forward. At the same time, I appreciate that, as someone who neither organises nor competes in this event, my views are much less important than those of the people who do.

Post by **CakeStop** » 11 Mar 2012 23:20

Other factors considered were deterioration of the road surface as autumn progresses and the fact that while making it later wouldn't be a problem for folks who simply wished to help out at the our joint CX event it would rule out those who wished to race the full CX series as (I believe) the season starts with our event.

"Other factors considered were deterioration of the road surface as autumn progresses"

Call me old fashioned but that is one of the "charms" of the hill climb, picking your route whilst trying not to wheel spin.

Crikey! Who's got the stopwatch(es)?

I have now recieved the ok for the date change from Jeff Matthews Midland DC

GrahamGamblin · Post by **GrahamGamblin** » 23 Mar 2012 12:47

Just thought I'd mention that I cycled up Winwood Heath Road yesterday and it hasn't wintered well - it was tricky to pick a route between potholes and loose gravel. I know it's never been great, but it did seem to me to have deteriorated.

If enough people report it via CTC's fillthathole it might be fixed in time
