Guardian Cup / Scratch Comps – Latest af

Guardian Cup / Scratch Comps – Latest after Round 8

Reading Time: < 1 minute Last weeks 10 affected several competitions but the podium for the 10 champs made little difference to the Guardian Cup.  Mike Lodge was knocked off top spot with a rugby tackle by ever improving Carl Hitchenson.  Clearly the cross training is paying dividends! Third man on the champs podium Paul Connor LEEp frogged Craig into […]

WVCC Club 10 Championship – 18th July 20

WVCC Club 10 Championship – 18th July 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute Great turn out for the club champs plus the added interest of Guardian Cup points due to the cancellation of the previous week’s race due to the World Cup. Jim Duffy came out of temporary retirement to post a cracking time of 22:39, less than 30 seconds behind his PB for this course.  Another rare […]

Club 10’s – Round 7 – 4th July 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute Clearly, everyone is getting used to the warm, dry, near perfect conditions that we have been riding in lately, as the times are improving, week on week. A healthy field of 23 turned out and enjoyed the evening sun. Paul Connor did a flyer this week, looking good ahead of next week’s Warrington Road Club […]

Club 10’s – Round 6 – 27th June 2018

Club 10’s – Round 6 – 27th June 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute Phew what a scorcher!  Great evening for sitting outside a pub with a nice cold drink, but failing that maybe a breeze from a gentle bike ride would do the trick (I think not).  20 brave souls battled with the humid conditions but some PB’s were achieved so clearly we have some sun lovers in […]

Club 10’s – Round 5 – 13th June 2018

Club 10’s – Round 5 – 13th June 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute A blustery night for once with rain threatening but fortunately never came.  Cheshire East decided to dig up some more roads so we reverted to the old Lach Dennis/ Barkers Lane 2 lapper.  We had 6 visitors and the winner overall was Dave Jones (unattached) who was once a quick rider and hasn’t lost too […]

WVCC 10’s – 2-up – 6th June 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute Another great night for the “so called” 2-up.  “So called” because only 2 pairs rode and 15 solos which begs the question should we drop the event and just have a solo race in future.  Fastest pair were Ged lacey and his partner (only for racing I hasten to add!), Alex Chaffey Green with a […]

Club 10’s – Round 4 – 30th May 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute An unusually still and warm evening following a rainy afternoon produced float conditions and as a result we had a number of PB’s tonight.  Paddy Lucas stole the show with his winning time of 25:08.  Carl Hitchenson wopped a massive 1min 40 secs off his PB to take maximum 25 points towards his Guardian Cup […]

Club 10’s – Round 3 – 23rd May 2018

Club 10’s – Round 3 – 23rd May 2018

Reading Time: 3 minutes Yet another cracking night with several PB’s.  Quickest man was Paul Connor with a his first of many 25mph rides recording 23:49.  Emily also stepped up another gear tonight on her meteoric rise to stardom with a stonking 24:40 for 2nd quickest overall out of 24 riders.  Emily will go well under the hour for […]

Club 10 – Second Round – 16th May 2018

Club 10 – Second Round – 16th May 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute A great turnout for the 10 this week on a sunny but cool evening.  Good to see a few new (and some old), faces setting benchmark times for the Guardian cup including: Rob Dacey, Darren Johnson, Luke Curbishley, Colin Latter, Carl Hitchenson and most notably 15 year old Sam Jones.  Your rides from next week […]

Club 10 – 1st Round – 9th May 2018

Club 10 – 1st Round – 9th May 2018

Reading Time: < 1 minute Members were clearly put off by the rain that started early evening on Wednesday as only 7 riders took part.  Shame as it stopped raining for the event so everybody who did ride got away with it.  Incidentally skin is waterproof (says he who also didn’t ride)! Roadworks on the A50 forced a change to […]
