The Beacon Message Board

The first Beacon club TT of season will be held on Sat 23rd March on K37/6G course at 2pm. For any newcomers or those who've not ridden this course it is same as https://www.strava.com/activities/367591937#8778419510
Sign on will be at start, parking on bridge over A435 at turning signed for Ullenhall from 13:30. Entry is £4 as the levvy to CTT has gone up to £3 per rider. All levels of rider are very welcome. If you don't know the course it might be worth arriving early to give time to go around it before race starts as there won't be marshalls to direct you at every junction but it's not a complicated route.
This event is also the opening event in our season long handicap points competition which usually ends up as a very close contest.

Results.

1 Paul Astin 15:34
2 Ian Taylor 16:28
3 Neil Orchard 17:12 (road bike)
4 Keith Adcock 17:51
5 Richard Leaper 18:00 (road bike)
6 Gemma "Homing pidgeon" Johnson 22:51 (came back via Redditch Town Centre)

Well done all, especially wishing a warm welcome to Paul on his first race with us as a Beacon member.
Back on same course next Saturday for twice the value for money as it's 2 laps.

Here we go with the first handicap points of the season. Paul is restricted to base time as too new to have handicap (the effect isPaul falls behind those who had a PB on the day and beats everyone else). Richard had the best PB and therfore tops the table whilst Jemma's detour somewhat ruined her time
