Member Racing Results/Reports - 23/24 Mar 2024

So a TT and a Road Race to report on. For the TT we had 3 members riding on a very windy course, thanks to Sam McDonald for pushing off, Ian Stokes for organising the event and to Norman King for being the Timekeepers Assistant (checking for lights and helmets). The NDCA events are a great way of getting into Time Trialling at an "Open" level. Pat continues to race and did a road race on Sunday riding for VeloElite RC.

Grab yourself a bargain and help MND at the same time

The club has received a donation of various cycling and running gear, mainly clothing, all in really good (as new) condition.  We are looking to sell them off for a donation to the MND charity – suggested donations in the attached list.  Mike will bring the gear to the Ale Taster on Thursday, so bring some cash and grab yourself a bargain.

On the 17th Mar, Anastasia Bowler (Stassi) is riding the Cicle Classic which starts at 1330. It is a great race and uses the roads around Rutland.

Reliability Ride 2024

Sun 3rd Mar 24, a cold day beckoned as I rode up Priory Hill to see the Titan Team (George, Karen, Caroline and Karen). The forecast was good with the sun coming out and it was going to be 7c or so later in the morning. When I got there a few riders were waiting in their cars.
