Club discussion / Club Championships Update
« on: May 17, 2019, 03:59:06 PM »
For those competing in the Club Championships this year the following Open events are being used as the counting events:

22/06/2019 - East Lancs RC Open 25 (J2/9)
20/07/2019 - Congleton CC Open 50 (J4/9)

As usual, unlike the Club 10s these events need to be entered around 10 days in advance via CTT. Points will be awarded towards the Club Championships for these events just like the Club 10s.

In case you missed it the Club Champs started last week with Stockport Clarion marshalling. It's our first event for marshalling this coming Monday. We have enough people but if you can marshall any future events let us know.

Club events & results / Brickworks Hill Climb Thurs 30th August
« on: August 15, 2018, 11:01:01 PM »
We're doing the Brickworks Hill Climb again this year on Thursday 30th August.

We've got the bar at Pott Shrigley Village Hall and there will be prizes donated by Rapha and Rare Mags. It's going to be great!

So there will be no hill climb series this year, just this event and the quickest 1st claim wheeler will get the hill climb trophy at the the annual dinner.

The event will also be eligible for points in the club scratch and handicap champs (club 10 series) due to no Cat & Fiddle event this year.

Sign on will be from 6:15 for a 7:01 start.

Better stock up on the the slim fast!

« on: February 04, 2018, 05:50:26 PM »
This year we're planning to combine the monthly committee meetings with a social every other month and the first one is taking place this Thursday at the Lass O Gowrie on Charles St, near Oxford Rd station

Come along from 6:30 onwards for a beer. Meeting will start at 7. Plan is to keep things very informal. If you'd like to chat about getting the club rides going or helping out with any events this year, or anything else, that would be great, but If you're just curious and want to sit in that's good too. Hope to see some of you there!
