Well, last time I raced over these roads it was in the WCTTA 12hr event in August..Oh what a difference 6 months can make.. It was a early start for the WVCC boys [there were just 2 of us to face the timekeeper] as I was picking Andy Wooley up in Weaverham at 0700. Bikes […]
Manchester and NW hosted the VTTA [Veterans Time Trial Association] National Championship 10 mile TT , on the J2/1, Months Heath to Knutsford Road. It was interesting that I could hear many woeful complaints after riders had finished, about the ‘sporting nature of the course’ and the’ very rough road surface’.. people came from all […]
I’ve just had a club member on who had booked a twin room for the Hotel in Llanberis this weekend, [same hotel we are going to but not booked thru me] He was going to ride and his girlfriend was going to drive.. but now they can’t go. If anybody is thinking about it they […]

Dear All, Over the last four years I have run two bike rides from Winsford “Scouting Mam Tor 200K” and the “Edale Run 160K” I had several of your club members come along for the ride. I had great feedback from the rides so I’m running them again this year on the 12th March. The […]
Llanberis 2017. The Llanberis lists for 2017 are now closed, interest has been overwhelming. I now have a reserve list of 13. So if you haven’t registered, it’s too late. Sorry..
Here we are again, time to think about next springs weekend away.. After this years ‘Monsoon’ rain, next years weekend is a month later . It is on the 18th / 19th March 2017. Many of this years attendees were not put off by the wind and rain and have signed up for the 2017 version. […]
I am sorry for this lengthy tome, I was intending to keep it short but…so if you read these ramblings, sit down with a coffee, you’ll need it to stay awake! How do I start to recount the ride of my 1st [and possibly only 24hr TT] especially when, a] Dave Fearon has given a […]
Carl Ruebotham said ” you need to get over and ride the V718 mate it’s really fast” “not fast enough for an Open Event, and too fast for the slowest riders event” says I…. But, I decided that if you want to win the lottery, you have start off with a ticket..so a couple of […]
Well the weather gods smiled on us again tonight, and although it wasn’t a scorcher, at least it stayed dry…. Alan Forrester was a clear winner of the Dave Astles Memorial Trophy.. and a worthy winner he was too, he had two wins and a second over the series. I hope he enters next year […]
A good turn out this morning, A short run to Tilly’s in Bunbury, navigated by Derek H, and a long run to Prees.. after the usual general socialising the long run set off first.. as we topped Burrows hill, Jules looked back and said “oh Gosh, there’s quite a few takers” [or something to that […]
As a club, we’d like to wish Andrew Simpson @simmo_on_sport all the best for the future, with a heartfelt thanks for supporting WVCC all these years....
