Well done KPRC. We got 2nd place team award (last picture) but unfortunately our fastest riders had gone so Steve H and me stood in. The fastest rider and also fastest on standard was the amazing Steve Dennis East Grinstead CC – well done Steve, not that you will read this but it is published for the who wide word to see it if they wish!
In order to celebrate our massive total points so far towards the Rawson Trophy we gathered for a picture. While assembling we were asked by the officials what song were we going to sing, so we spontaneously sang “We are the Kingston Phoenix happy girls and boys were here today to start our Rawson Trophy Campaign” Ok the words don’t gel but I had to think quick on my feet.
Bryn Tully permitted me to make an announcement to the gathered SCCU clubs that remained for the prize presentation, simply to point out that the Rawson Trophy does exist and all member clubs can compete and make a real competition, would they please do so as we do not want this to become simply another “attendance Trophy” i.e. you just turn up and ride (or even don’t ride but simply enter!). Interesting to note that Addiscombe only had one rider.
The comment was appreciated and applauded!
