Shrewsbury Circuits

Hi Grah.

Just wondering if you were planning on doing the circuits at Shrewsbury this Saturday?

My thinking is that if I can race twice in a weekend then what the hell. I’m up for it as long as it doesn’t chuck it down all day. Give that brother of yours a poke as well and we’ll have a strong group! The Morro’s are both tokenless I believe, so we’ll be expecting big attacks at COB on Sunday! ;)

Four laps of the LCC hilly circuit tonight. (K45/22.8)

Starting from the layby on A49 just outside Ludlow. 1st rider should be off at 7pm. Signing on at least 15 mins before.

Hopefully see you there.

One down and ready for more!

Done it!

That’s the first TT under the belt and I actually quite enjoyed it. (Couldn’t have been going hard enough!) Ian and I knuckled down to our first TT of the season down at Resolven (nr Port Talbot) on Sunday. It was dry and sunny, which is more than I can say for most of the TT’s last year!!

Paramount Circuit Race Series

With the Evesham RR slipping through my fingers, I am keen to do the Paramount Series. Does anybody know how it all works? It says that they take entries on the day, is this true? Do I just need to take my license, plus entry fee obviously? I’m afraid I don’t have much faith in some of the race organisers (no start sheet for Port Talbot 25TT which I am riding Sunday yet!!).  Any info would be much appreciated. See you all soon.

Autumn EPIC

Hi All. I know most of you will be working/marshallin’ and generally busy, but is anyone riding? If so, is there any meeting time arranged?

Thursday Night Ride

New week, new ride!! Meet at the Ludlow Eco park at 7 or if there are any early birds, me and Simon are going for a quick spin up the Ludlow hill climb (Whitcliffe) just after 6. I believe that the idea is to take on the Brown Clee incline tonight!!! No 30 signs at the top, so it isn’t a race. Although, first person to the top has the pleasure of watching everyone else wrestle their machines to the death!!! See you there! :)

Thursday ChainGang

It’s Thursday again and it looks like being a mixture of sunshine and showers! :( Not quite what you boys have been used to whilst on your jollies but it’s all we have to offer here in the UK.

I’ll be sporting a rain jacket at the eco park at 7, but if anybody wants to go earlier I’m planning on going for a warm up first at about 6:15. Hope you can all make it, as I’m sure you have lots of stories to tell to make the time pass! :)

Shop Social Ride Saturday 12th July

Hi everyone. I’m going to take a ride out from the shop this Saturday, leaving at around 10am. It will be about 35 miles, not totally sure yet as I’m going to plan the route tonight. Hopefully it will give us all a chance to catch up and discuss any up and coming events. Hopefully see you all there! I’ll post the route as soon as it’s done. :)

Sunday Ride 29th June

Hopefully, there will be a few of us meeting at the sheet road (ludlow) eco park at 9am tomorrow morning for a 50ish mile ride. Last chance to have a go at catching Simon’s wheel before he’s off for the marmot! There will be hills, descents and even 30 signs on route, so there’s something for everyone. :)

Merlin Ride Sunday 22nd June

Anybody doing this? I see it says on the sportive outings post that this one should be a major shop ride, but can’t see anyone on the entry list! I’m definitely up for the biggy, 112 miler! Any takers!
