As a prelude to a timetable of events for 2016, we're going to put together a short series of three "Hilly's" over the next six weeks to run every other thursday.
Starting July 30th, we're offering you the chance to test your skills and fitness by asking you to come and join us for an informal Time Trial of just over 15 miles on the infamous Radwinter Race Circuit.
The meeting point is at the top of Red Oaks Hill, the junction of New House Lane/Radwinter Road - wait in New House Lane
DO NOT PARK YOUR CAR HERE IF YOU ARE DRIVING - THERE IS PARKING AT RADWINTER VILLAGE HALL APPROX 1.5 MILES AWAY
Be there for by 7pm for the brief - riders will be starting some ten minutes later at one minute intervals
Please find the route link below.
This is a circuit with four major left hand turns.
You must give way and obey the rules of the Highway at all times.
Hard Case Helmets must be worn and you must have a rear bike light - no light, no helmet then no ride.
This event is only open to current club members and is free - sadly guests and non members will not be allowed to ride.
Weather dependent.

This is a simple basic format and if it works out then we'll introduce this formally in 2016 along with an early season "roadman's thirty" and later on in the year a "points series fifteen" which will give every rider in the Club a chance to place their performance against a handicap system (based upon age, etc).
Again, do not bring your car or assume that you can park close by so plan in advance how you will get to and from the meeting point.
