Some pretty amazing results achieved last Saturday at Hog Hill by that powerful duo Clifford ‘n’ Coley.
Elliot fair trashed the field, coming 2nd in the bunch sprint, finally finishing in 3rd place in the 3rd cats - a very decent result especially as the battery on his bike had run out …… no no it’s not cross - it meant he couldn’t change gear and road the race in single gear - pretty impressive achievement at Hog Hill.
Joe rode in the 4th cats riding in a 40 minute 3 man breakaway narrowly missing his first victory, nevertheless came in 2nd, his best result yet.
With both lads picking up quantities of those extra special and well deserved BC points they are well on their to achieving their targets this year… chapeau..
Saturday 12th March - Youth and Junior Road Rides
2 rides this Saturday:
Juniors - Following the overwhelming success of the last Saturday’s Classic ride we will be leading a long steady ride sticking firmly to the tarmac - expect a 50 mile circuit taking in some of your favorite hills and dales.
Youths - Geoff has prepared off road ride, suitable for both MTB and Cross bikes.
Both rides will leave the velodrome at 9.30 am and will if everyone stops phaffing around at the start and sets off on schedule end with Flemish lunch at Cafe Paradou around 1.30 - please if you are planning to borrow a club bike do turn up at least 15 minutes earlier.
Rides will be on the road or part on road so normal pack drill:
Helmets must be worn
BC HHYCC and/or DP Membership required
Bring spare inner tubes that fit your bike
Wear suitable clothing for the weather
