To anybody who is keen to do more Hill Climbs, definitely check out the Facebook group UK Hill Climbing, set up by our own Christian Fox.

You'll find details of all this seasons Hill Climb events, some informal like this one, and some a (little) bit more serious, all leading towards the National Hill Climb Championships on October 28th which is possibly the most fun thing a cyclist has ever invented.

Thanks!

I'll help again Mick.
I'd like to race this time though. And it will be my debut! (assuming full recovery from a broken collar bone.) So anything that fits in around that and watching Alex in his race would be great.

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!

Club events & results / Manchester Wheelers Cyclo-cross Sun 14th October 2018

Hello everybody!

Mick Style here, organiser of the Wheelers Cross Races over the past ten years. We have the Wheelers Cyclo-cross races coming up on Sunday 14th October at Heaton Park in Manchester and it would be great to get a bunch of Wheelers out to help as usual with the organisation. Duties will include course set-up, sign-on duties, judging and marshalling. In the first instance, could you post up on here if you can help out on the day. We get up to 500 racers across all categories on the day and we need c. 25 helpers in all including volunteers from the North West CX League, so any help would be gratefully received. It's a good social day out and fun watching the racing. Thanks in advance to the usual reliable helpers and anyone else, be great to hear from you! More details to follow in due course, but in the meantime, please post away!

Cheers, Mick

Club events & results / Club Championships - Open 50 21st July
« Last post by Dan Robinson on July 05, 2018, 07:04:15 PM »
Reminder that the Club Championships nominated Open 50 this year is the Cheshire Road Club event on 21st July, for which entries close on Tues 10th. Including this, there are still 7 events left of the series - http://www.manchesterwheelers.uk/club-events.

Don't forget only your best 8 events count toward scoring, so plenty of time for those who haven't raced yet to make their mark. There's a 100 point bonus for marshalling too, so if you haven't done so yet, don't miss out.

Current points standings are here http://www.manchesterwheelers.uk/club-10-results-2018/

Dan. Looks like they are near Macclesfield, which regrettably is usually a bit far out for me to reach after work ( Manchester ) but I'll keep an eye on if I get an opportunity.

Apologies for not putting these up here sooner. They have been going up on the Facebook page which seems to be the preferred communication format for most members these days.

Tomorrow is our turn to marshall again. Any offers of help, or for future events (every alternate monday), are greatly appreciated. Don't forget you get 100 bonus points for the championships if you marshall at least one event.
