Club TT Wed 14th May 7:00

Post by RichK » 08 May 2014 13:16

The next club TT takes place next Wednesday 14th May 7:00 start.

It's just 9 flat miles this time, twice round this cirucuit :

http://www.bikehike.co.uk/mapview.php?l ... 6-4_5C.gpx

this is the first of 5 weekly events on the same course - so a good place to set a benchmark & watch your improvment over the duration.

Some people may ride out & back. Park & sign on by the start. We often have a good turn out here and is usually a really good event.

If there's anybody available who's willing to marshall at the first turn this would be really appreciated (we really should have somebody there).

I'm also racing the next day (and possibly the day before), so I can also help marshall if needed.

Club time trials cost £3 Stuart, sign on between 6.30 and 7 at the start which is at junction of Tithe Barn Lane & Umberslade Rd (near Earlswood, we cycle along part of the course on Wednesday evening rides).
Can someone correct the title of this thread, it's 14th May not June as indicated? (Done)

Planning on having a crack at this as my first ever time trial!!!

Will probably be riding out to the course so will try and get there as close to 6.30 as I can.

Thanks for all the offers for help. We're using this course for 5 weeks, so I hope some of you might be available in subsequent weeks (please :) )

Forecast is good, so I'm hopeful for a good turnout. Can I make a request that faster riders go off later. That just helps make the timekeepers job a bit easier. Thanks.

Otherwise see you all about half six tonight.
