: Manchester Wheelers 2-Day 26-27th August
: Ruth Taylor July 03, 2017, 06:03:03 PM
Right then this is the early warning post - starting it now to make sure no one can say they didn't get enough notice!!!

So our hugely successful and always well attended 2 Day stage race is happening again this year with thanks to Charles G and Rich B for doing some leg work as I will be somewhat out of action after back surgery on the 12th July.

This means we need a small army of helpers to make it as amazing as usual. Everyone is very welcome to get involved - new and old members alike.

Day 1 is at Tameside Cycle Circuit
Day 2 on the Oakenclough RR circuit (just outside Garstang)

Please can I get a show of hands for people available and willing to help. Day 2 is the most people intensive and if you are one of our more northern members then this is your chance to pitch and help out.

Day 1 - approx 10-12 volunteers needed
Day 2 - 25 ish needed

I look forward to a rush of volunteers, and if you ticked that you would be able to help when you joined then watch out for my message taking you up on the offer.

Ta very much
Ruth xx

Hi Ruth, I'm able to help on the Sunday again.

If anyone else wants to make a ride out of it, I'll be riding to Lancaster afterwards via the Trough of  Bowland weather premitting.

Thank you Martin and Charles😁
Great news.

Saturday  help would need to arrive at approx 8am (yikes! sorry) please. If you can't make it until a little later don't worry.

The morning session will need the most helpers with the Prologues running 9:30-11:30 ish.

Then crits in the afternoon 12:30-2:30 ish

So if anyone could do the morning but not afternoon that would also be fine.

Once again thanks for your help so far and keep the offers coming please.

Thanks
