Next up on Saturday 13th April is my favourite TT course of the year - K32/20 :) If I could only ride one course, this would be it.

If you haven't previously ridden the course you're advised to acquaint yourself with the route as, although it's relatively simple, many have a missed a turning at some point (me included). It's also your last chance to get a handicap time before June.

Sign on at Shell Ford about half hour before start. First rider off at 2:00

Martin - I'm still up for timekeeping so you're good for a ride. If anybody about for pushing off then help would be appreciated (I can't manage that).

Sorry Dave but the only water involved is when it falls out of the sky.

Mark Roberts was the rider. I think my time was 53:32 not 53:22 Rich.
Many thanks to Rich for timekeeping & well done to all.

Thanks to Rich for timekeeping and officiating, much appreciated. A cold and blustery day, congrats to Mark for a strong ride and well done to all for turning out and taking part. Here’s to warm and still conditions when we next use this course in June!

A really good course and recpmmend to anyone and everyone when the club handicap comes round. Worth spending a bit of time memorising the route as easy to go off especially early on - well wortht he effort though. A big win on handicap for Martin smashing his previous PBand good times overall

Martin McGowan 53.32 9.52 43.40 40
Mark Roberts 51.58 6.01 45.57 39
Keith Adcock 55.00 8.10 46.50 38
Ian Taylor 52.51 4.28 48.23 37
Gemma Johnson 56.28 5.39 50.49 36

Best
Simon
