MANCHESTER WHEELERS: Open Hilly Time Trial - Sunday, 29 April
Tom Goldthorpe:
Our Open Hilly Time Trial is in two weeks time on Sunday, 29 April and we need some helpers please to allow the event to go ahead.
As an absolute minimum, we need 8 people, but a couple more would be very useful. Please sign up below if you can help. The main help will be needed from 12:00 until 3:30pm, but help to set up the course and at the HQ before that will be useful. Once again, the HQ is at Warslow Village Hall in the Staffordshire Moors between Leek and Longnor. Event details are here:

If you need transport, please let me know and we will try to organise lifts. Someone has asked if there is a group of people riding out to the event. If you are planning on riding there, please let me know so I can pass on the details.
If anyone wants to ride the event, entries close this Friday. If you can ride and help either before or after please let me know and I will arrange your start time to suit.
Please either reply to this post, or email me and I will add your name to the list below. Email address = membership'at'manchesterwheelers'dot'uk.
Thanks in advance
Tom Goldthorpe

Mark Pickles:
Hi Tom.
Many apologies. I am away that weekend for my eldests Rugby tour... Hope the event goes well. I really wanted to ride it this year too!
Tom Goldthorpe:
No worries Mark. Thanks for the reply. Good luck for the rugby tour.
Tom Goldthorpe:
Okay. 1 person has had to drop out due to a shift change at work so we are now 3 people short.
The event cannot be run without the required number of marshals outlined on the risk assessment. The help I am asking for is not to make my life easier - IT'S BECAUSE WE WILL HAVE TO CANCEL THE EVENT UNLESS HELP COMES FORWARD.
If we do cancel the event, there will be a disciplinary to go through and there'll be repercussions, so it can't be cancelled on a whim, but if we can't put on a safe event we'll have no choice.
