Reading Time: 2 minutes Cracking evening yesterday with lots of sunshine resulting in plenty of PB’s. A special mention to our Carol (Robson not Kirkwood):), who demolished her PB from 28:22 to 27:03!!! I think the club needs to order an EPO test kit and an X-Ray machine for next season as some of these improvements are amazing. Only […]

Club 10’s- 17th July 2019
Reading Time: < 1 minute A night for the riders with waterproof skin tonight! 16 brave souls turned up and actually despite the rain it was pretty quick with several PB’s. Winner with a 22:00 was Dave Walker but there was a gaggle of 23’s after that with a very in form Titch taking second place with a PB 23:12. […]
Club 100 mile champs – 14th July 2019 –
Reading Time: 3 minutes Just some words from me following Emily’s excellent blog yesterday. It has been a quite a few years since we had 4 entrants in the 100 champs and having 3 novices including one lady entrant is even more unusual. All 4 riders stepped up to the distance and took it on bravely. 100 miles at […]
SCCA 100TT
Reading Time: 5 minutes The 4am alarm rang this morning and I think Sam and I were too nervous about falling asleep to even consider a snooze, so up we got, dragged ourselves into some clothes, made some coffee and got on the road; leaving the poor dog mystified as to what the hell was going on. The last […]
Club 10 – 10th July 2019
Reading Time: < 1 minute A tailwind down Penny’s Lane last night which is always a good things on this course. As a result we saw no less than 9 club riders setting PB’s from our of a field of 17 WVCC riders and 2 visitors. For the first time but I’m sure not the last we saw Sam Taylor […]
10 Mile Championship – 3rd July 2019
Reading Time: 2 minutes Fantastic turn-out for the 10 champs last night and probably one of our best ever in terms of number of riders and times recorded. Conditions were perfect and as a result we had a lot of PB’s and some very close placings. Second claim member and local Pro Matt Nowell posted a sizzling 21:03 but […]
M&DLCA 10 – 29/06/2019
Reading Time: 4 minutes The Manchester and District Ladies’ Cycling Association Ladies Open Handicapped and Men’s Invitation 10 mile Time Trial Course J2/3 Report: Emily Martin. Race Images: Adrian Japp Not a nice day for a TT today, we were all beading with sweat just putting our socks on in the 28 degree heat! Plus it was deceivingly windy […]
WVCC Club 10 – 26th June 2019
Reading Time: < 1 minute Quite a contrast in the weather from last week with heat and blue skies which attracted 20 starters on Wednesday. Clearly it was a good night as we saw several PB’s. Rapidly improving Andy Milligan took the honours with his 23:28 on the slower emergency course due to T-Lights at Lower Peover. Paul Connor and […]
Warrington Road Club 4 Up TT
Reading Time: 5 minutes I’m just on a wind down after a fantastic night on the bike, so thought I’d write a blog about how tonight’s team time trial went… I remember in 2016 heading out with Elaine to watch a team of Jim Duffy, Jim Williams, Chris Gilbertson and Jo Blakeley ride the same 4 up in a […]
WVCC Oulton Park 2019 Round 3 – 11th Jun
Reading Time: 3 minutes Again absolutely massive thanks to this crowd of judges plus the photographers and signers on. Who could have predicted that the weather would have been as bad as last week. Well it wasn’t, it was worse! Also thanks to motorbike Marshall’s and ambulance crew. Despite the atrocious weather we ran two successful races. Six hardy […]
Club 10’s – 2 up TTT – 5th June 2019

[…]
WVCC Oulton Park 2019 Round 2 – 4th June
Reading Time: 2 minutes Well, the result of round 2 last night was a solid drenching of all the dedicated riders that turned out! Nevertheless, there was some excellent racing, especially in race 2, with a solo breakaway, that was never reeled in. Results and a few images below:
