Number 16 30 seconds 10 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, GO, good luck. Does this sound familiar? Of course it does you know how a time trial works by now. But this wasn’t the start of it all for me. It was way back at Oulton Park talking to Adrian Japp and Dave Fearon about […]
When you journey thru the distances of TT’ing, it is usual to do it in a progressive manner, spending a few years riding 50’s, and 100’s before venturing into the realms of a 12hour TT.. However, Titch turned the convention book on its head by only riding 10’s, a couple of 25’s and just one […]
Thanks to the riders who turned up for our final club 10 of the season. There were some notable rides on the night. Andy Milligan and Paul Longley have been producing some great rides this year and finally they got a win with a tie for first place with 23:13. Titch now has to take […]
As per Ady’s post on Facebook, it’s better for the club’s records if we blog results so that they’re in chronological and easier to find. With this in mind, here’s a record of the club champ results so far this year, with only the 12hr and hill climb left this season… 10 mile champs – […]
So the cup competitions are all over bar the shouting. 16 people turned up to try and make a difference and as is the tradition I won’t publish the Guardian Cup and Scratch Cup final standings as they will be announced at the post Final Fling social in the Crown at Lower Peover next Wednesday. […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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....
