Club Handicap Competition Returns

Warrington Road Club

Handicap Time Trial Competition 1^st July 2023

(as part of the VTTA M&D Time Trial Event)

Back on the agenda for the first time since 1974 and in our 100^th Year as a club, we brought back the Handicap Time Trial event for a fun race day with the intention to level the field. The idea being a Time Trail at a set distance in a race against the clock with all riders being given a time handicap based on their historical and suggested ability. Should all riders ride to their handicapped time, then all riders set the same time, hence the best performer on the day wins the event. (Should, of course, the Handicappers get the predicted times correct).

Newry 3 Day Race Report, by Gary Scott…

I recently went back to my home land, Northern Ireland to ride the Newry 3 day stage race. It was a chance to race with my younger brother John and other whom I’ve raced with and known for years and compete in one of the most popular races on the Irish calendar.

Conwy YHA Trip 2018

CONWY 2018 BLOG COURTESY OF STEVE HANKEY – WRC.

2018 Conwy plans started in late 2017 with a shout out to all members for volunteers/victims to get on board. The 5 months between making a commitment and it actually happening lulled many an unsuspecting soul to put their name down, whilst resolving to getting themselves fit beforehand.

Next minute and it was upon us.
