Sunday
rides - a small group of club members are riding on Sundays, starting
at Barby Road at 0930 hrs, riding at a steady pace for 2hrs with no
cafe stop. This should suit riders who are looking for a shorter ride
with less time commitment on a Sunday.

The
Mids CTT is piloting a new ranking system in 2010 for open
events, similar to British Cycling's Elite, 1st Cat, etc. To show
how this works results have been calculated using 2009 results and
these can be viewed on a new website:
-
Mike
Bloom sets a +12-47 for a 30 mile Vet
on Std. As we have not had a 30 mile record in this category
we must assume this establishes a club record, unless someone can
produce a counter-claim.
