Tomorrows cruise 20th June - Overwater.

Weather forecast is rain but warm rain.

Meet as normal Wedgwood 9.45.

Waterproof and mudguards advised.

Please post if you intend to join..

This event is run on the A46 near Newark on Trent
Good road surface but an up and down profile, some long drags.

Very hot 29 degrees plus and quite a strong wind.
91 riders signed up for this one
However; 32 riders DNS and 19 DNF

I would put this down to the conditions 

Very tough ride, and a disappointing result
Ran out of power at 28 miles

Result: 02:17:25

Onward an upward

Tuesday Cruise 11th June. Spoons Stone.

To avoid sprinting there as we did last time, suggest we go out via Maer, Podmore, Eccleshall, Yarnfield.

Return via Barlaston , Bod. 35-40 miles.

Looks like another nice ride in the sun.

Meet 9.45 Wedgwood Avenue.

Please post if you intend to join the ride.

Just to record the Latest Results 

A number of events completed since the previous update.

Sat 6th May 2023 – L1015: 10 mile out and back course, this is perhaps on one  of the potentially faster courses if the weather is good.
The start is in a layby at the top of a slight hill which gives just under half a mile of a fast decent, however the down side is that the road surface is poor for the most part of it.
The main course is DC with a 1.5 mile centre section that is single carriageway, this applies to both the outward leg to the RAB turn and the return leg.
RESULT: 24:34 [av speed 25.7mph}

Sat 13th May 2023 – J4/20; Local 10-mile TT – RESULT: 25:19 [av speed 23.8mph]

Sat 20th May 2023 – L1015: re-visit to this course. Decent weather this afternoon – RESULT: 22:32 [av speed 26.7mph]

Sat 3rd June 2023 – Tour of Cambridgeshire, a UCI event held in Peterborough. This is a full weekend of cycling with the Crono [TT] on Saturday and the Road race, Grand Fondo, and sportifs on the Sunday and all competed on mostly closed roads.
The TT is on a Hilly 16.5 mile course on both A and B roads and actually riding through a local village. – RESULT: 43:03 [av speed 22.6mph]

Some good and some not to good, but  Onward and Upward

Tuesday Cruise 6th June. Higher Farm.

Several riders are raving about this cafe stop (I thought the emphasis should be on the cycling). I’ve not been there so have no idea where it is.

Therefore, Paul Wonderland has ‘volunteered’ to guide me there and rumours of a guest appearance who also has the route should ensure we get there to try it out for ourselves. 40-50 miles so a bit longer jaunt.

Meet 9.45am Wedgwood.

Please post if you intend to join what promises to be a sunny morning.

Thanks DJ .
