The forecast for Wednesday is iffy (of course) for safety reasons might I request all riders to fit a rear light to their machine.
If there is heavy spray from vehicles it might be necessary to abandon the event, if it is obvious in the afternoon to abandon I will contact Lisa for her to put it on the Phoenix Blog, PLEASE CHECK.

IF an advance decision is made to cancel the event I will endeavour to get it on the blog asap and I will also tweet it https://twitter.com/KingstonPhoenix

The funeral is to be at St Saviours Church, Brookwood at 14:30 on Wednesday 30th April

Forum

Before I get nagged about the forum not working, it seems that there is trouble on their end - nothing to do with me and nothing I can do about it.

Andy Pearce Brilliant Off-Road to Olympic Park

Dear Andy I have to say you did a fantastic job today and I enjoyed the ride immensely! I was amazed at the size of the Olympic venue and I marvel about what may eventually be created! So far there is little to show though what has been done looks good. I was amazed to see all the open space yet to be developed. Clearly there is a lot still to be done by the legacy committee or whatever! I was completely amazed to see that the lights from the Olympic Stadium had been taken down! Presumably footballers need different lights - what an amazing state of affairs!

The pictures below depict some of our day - I guess the most memorable was getting into the Velodrome - well done Andy, you are definitely in danger of getting the Wooden Spoon back!

Must go to bed now I have to be up early for the flight to Palma - looking forward so much to my first training week in Mallorca! Hasta la Vista!

 Clapham Common en-route!

 Rest stop before Tower Bridge! Andy an amazing route down by St. Catherine's Dock and beyond - you are a star!

 Caffe near Velodrome!

 Andy did us proud getting us into the Velodrome - Brilliant. KPRC should take advantage of what is on offer! I talked to a mother and her daughter as the were leaving the Velodrome! They were from a cycling club i n Cambridge and had booked a session with British Cycling trainers to help them develop! Brian P please look i nto it it sounds brilliant!

Sorry to lower the tone slightly but there was this gorgeous young lady riding a sinlgle speed bike which I could not help but admire! We chatted a while and she explained she was from the Wirrel in Cheshire. Her boyfriend took the photo and as they have just moved to the London area I suggested that they may like to join the KPRC. All in all it was a fantastic day out for me, 63 miles door to door and thanks again to Andy!

Some Pictures from Easter Tour

As Jake said, lot's of lambs, locks at Foxton flight and fields of Rape! I will post more photo's on C&M so look out

Easter tour

Some of the Phoenix joined the Cheam and Morden Easter tour again this year at Market Harborough. Lots new faces. 30 on the weekend. Gary and I drove up thur afternoon in the rush hour just in time for the YHA meal at 7pm at Milton Keynes Hostel. Gary drove on the next morn and I cycled with the others. Lovely sunny day, but oh so cold. Met up with more at the station by chance and carried on into the strong headwind. The Hotel was fantastic, with room for everyone and a room for the bikes! The Three Swans. We ate there that night and sunday and had a curry sat eve. Graham led the sat ride using his garmin. I had to wear everything i had bought as it was bitterly cold. Had a look at the row of locks at the canal and headed out. It was earily quiet everywhere, just thousands of sheep and lambs and yellow fields as far as the eye could see. Found a pub for lunch that was like the Mary Celest, music, lights, warmth but empty. They rushed out to buy food and gave us a hearty sandwich selection. We split and had a fast group back home. The sun came out, and i took 2 layers and legs of, yeay! Bombed up and down all the hills and really enjoyed the ride back. The next day was also cold and misty. Pete Byer led with his map, so more stops. 11s was shut at a monastry, due to it being Easter day or something! Rode on to a pub for coffee, then onto another pub for lunch. Bit of rain, not much. Lots of pictures taken, but i can only post on facebook. Thanks to Ann and Steve for organising the whole weekend. We drove home monday morning and some took the train and some rode back.

Rawson Shield Update

Firstly, a big congratulations To Helene who won the 'Best Female Novice' award at the recent SCCU25

Secondly, the next counting event for the Rawson Shield is the SCCU 10 on the 17th May with the closing date on Tuesday 6th May. We really need one last big push on this event from as many members who can ride it as possible, before we get into the longer events later in the season. Another 10 plus riders would hopefully see us secure this trophy for the KPRC cabinet.
