Tour of Briton Epsom Downs

Ian Wilkinson

 so
Ian used to be in the UK MTB squad with Tim in the early 2000's so I said hello!

Taking a close look at Wiggo's  bike!

MTB Ride Thursday 19th September

Hi All

The weather forecast looks wet for Thursday so I think we should cancel the ride.
 
Hope everyone enjoyed our summer evenings, as much as I did!
Future rides will be weather permitting, and will be shorter in distance.
Will keep you posted.

Cheers
Andy

ps Planning some time to ride the Grand Union Canal into London via Little Venice.
Meet at Kingston, ride will take in Bushey Park, Crane river, Hounslow Heath then onto the canal.
Back via Hyde Park, Chelsea Harbour, River Thames, Putney, Wimbledon Common - finishing at Wetherspoons New Malden for a well earned beer! Lunch on the canal, coffee at Putney, beers at New Malden. Ride distance 38miles.
Probably an alternative Saturday ride!

SCCU 25 Sept 8.2013

Thanks to Joe & Rachel for marshaling today. Thanks also to Frank for timekeeping and all the other officials helpers, etc. It seems that Ray did not beat his best time this year to create yet another 87yr old Vet record. Thanks also to Brian P for the handicapping. Photo taken in Broadbridge Heath HQ. Simon having been an early starter had flown the nest but never the less did a PB. Commiserations also to Alex K for DNS though I know not why? It seems that I won the club H/C in this event - I suppose it was because I did a PB (that is since I joined KPRC, in 1963 my PB was 1.0.23 to the best of my memory - I never did beat the hour much to my regret) - so as far as I am concerned after a 23yr gap from cycling to get married and have 3 kids - I think my 1.12.32 is a PB. Picture shows Ray along with Joe & Rachel doing a sterling job marshaling!
