Bickerstaffe Road Race
Bickerstaffe Road Race! I’m home, showered and sunburned after my first real crack at a road race, so with beef hula hoops in hand I thought I’d write a blog – not least because I promised Mr Geoff Lovelady that I’d provide a summary. I entered Bickerstaffe several months ago whilst planning out my year […]
Guardian Cup – Points after 4 rounds
Jim Duffy recording an excellent PB in round 4, and grabbed max. Guardian Cup points in the process. Paul Connor yet again improved on his time to gain 24 points, and has put in quite a lead thus far in the competition. The only other person to improve this evening was Clare Hargreaves, who looks to […]
Guardian Cup 10 – Round 4 – 31st May 201
Another good night with a slight amount of rain but nothing to dampen the spirits. Our humble club 10’s are attracting some quality riders these days with Olympic champions and pros last week and this week Simon Bridge, a regular winner in time trials and road races in the Manchester Area and recently moved to […]
Guardian Cup – Points after 3 rounds
Ahead of tonight’s TT (only just!!), here are the results after 3 Guardian Cup rounds. Of note is Paul Connor, who gained another clutch of points this last week to launch him into 1st place overall, but also new member Clare Hargreaves, who bagged maximum points last week by shaving off 106 seconds from her […]
Anfield 100 – 29th May 2017
First of all, I would like to apologise to Dave Fearon, I used to complain about the length of his reports, and now I am just as bad, if not probably worse! I am even in danger of boring myself, let alone you lot!!😩 In preparation for this ride, having never ridden the Anfield 100 […]
Club 10’s – Guardian Cup Round 3 – 24th
A warm sunny evening with a light breeze brought a large field out for a Wednesday 10. A mix of club members battling for Guardian Cup points, and non-members out for their time against the clock. Fastest time of the evening was that of our own Matt Nowell, now pro rider with Bike Channel Canyon […]
Guardian Cup – Points after 2 rounds
Ahead of round 3 tomorrow, here are the standings thus far. Still early days, but early improved rides from Ben Jones and Paul Connor mean that they are at the top of the table in positions 1 and 2 respectively, with Dave Fearon also showing early season form. All to play for though, and plenty […]
Stone Wheelers 25 – 20th May 2017
This is the fastest course in the Manchester District on the A50 at Blythe Bridge. It is also very likely that this will the last event on this road for a few seasons if not ever, as major road-works over the coming years will prevent racing. So the event was massively over subscribed and the […]
Club 10’s – Guardian Cup Round 2 – 17th
Another good night after the light rain of the afternoon with little wind and some good times recorded. Not quite as fast as last week but no complaints apart from the usual excuses. Jim Duffy showed his blistering form with a near PB for club 10’s of 22:42 but his PB was set on a much […]
M&DTTA 25 Championship – 13th May 2017
Today was the Manchester District 25 mile championship and as has been the trend this season to date, it was massively oversubscribed with getting on for 200 entries for 120 places. Fortunately the event was a preference to Manchester DC riders so all of the returned entries were people from other areas. Weaver Valley had […]
