Chapeau this week to Stan - coming 8th in his category in of the toughest UCI standard Cross Country Courses I have ever raced on - the course meandered through a collection of historic huts before hitting the mountain repeatedly - the only respite a treacherous rock garden.
This was a greater achievement when one considers the rest of the entrants were from National teams riding at the top of the game. Bravo to him and also to Geoff who give it everything he had officially coming 11th in the wise man category (+40) and somehow he has worked out that had there been a very wise/foolish category (+50) he would have been second - just behind myself…...
This Saturday -
Road rides all round
Geoff will be leading a road ride for the Youths and slightly younger- generally following the Dulwich route of 35 miles and I’ll be leading a longer ride for Juniors and strong youths, taking in Ide Hill and Pilgrims.
For both rides meet at the velodrome at 9 am - we will be leaving around 9.10 so please be on time.
Rides are on the road - so normal pack drill
HHYCC/DP and BC membership required
Helmets must be worn and your bike be in road worthy condition
Bring food, liquid, spare inner tubes (that fit), pump and money for tea and buns
Adequate clothing and gloves for the weather
Don’t bring a rucksack - everything you need should fit into the pockets in your jersey or a small saddle bag.
There is also a time trial on the Crowhurst circuit - you need to be at the start by 10.30 - for details see link below. (HHYCC members are welcome to ride in these TT’s and all under 18’s need to take along a special TT Parent's Consent form - details are on the TT page)
