Ride out to hillclimb: Sat 8th

On road, off road, round in a big circle or down to the coast, we do the lot. We don't just do it at all speeds and for all levels, we do it Agreeably as well!

Ride out to hillclimb: Sat 8th

For all those competing or watching the hillclimb, there will be a ride leaving CSS at 8:30 Saturday morning. We've no leeway on start times so we need to allow for a steady ride + the odd mechanical.

I'll be there Phil.

Do you think we're likely to get there with time enough to take our EPO and have a quick reccy of the course? :wink:

There will be time to check out the course (we have to ride down it).

If I wanted to win, I'd have had to start taking EPO a long time ago. And training. And losing weight.

I take it that means no one objected to my standing as Jon's replacement pointy hatted gimp suit wrangler.

What Ben said, plus thanks to Ruth helping Paul.

Sylv won the hill climb and Phil the downhill.

Nice to see young guns Tom and Matt out supporting these club events and nice to ride with them.

A nice change for the normal routine (which recently has been lying in bed on a Saturday). Thanks to Paul, Ruth, Phil and Tim.

Tom punctured again on the way home. Might pop to Corridori for some 4 seasons.

Had a great time, thanks to all involved! And I'll take beating Sylv on the downhill, even if it was only due to my additional heft :D Well done Phil, I can honestly say I've never wanted anyone to fall off their bike as much as you when you we're edging towards me!
