Sunday 1st October 2017
A small entry than normal of six riders took on Belmont Hill last Sunday. This was due to some members still racing and other general commitment clashes. However the weather behaved and the group met up and rode out, plus stopping off for a well-earned coffee at the Bristol docks on the way home! Congratulations to Toby for retaining the title.

2nd – Simon Jennings – VCB – 3mins 38secs

Thanks to Steve Ashlin and John Turner for timing and pushing off.
Tuesday 18th July
U103 12.1m TT
Yay!!! After having to cancel the last 7 TTs we were finally able to hold another event on the U103 12.1 mile TT.
The hero of the night was Dr Kerfoot – he made a school boy error by setting everyone one off one minute early, but he fully redeemed himself by doing time keeping, setting off and working out all of the results. He also let me borrow his pedals and shoes, and he phoned the marshals so they knew what was going on with riders. He was a super star, and to top it off he has surprisingly neat hand-writing for a doctor!!! Cheers Doc!
Big thank you to everyone that helped out – Andy Higginson, Si Davis-Savage and Mark Bishton for manning the roundabout. Alex for sorting signing on. Ken, Phil and Martyn for setting off and timekeeping. Now down to the results, total of 15 riders raced.

Belmont Hill
Yet again we had a glorious day weather-wise for the hill climb. A good group of about 12-14 riders met up at Warmley Station for the gentle ride across town (Great to see some new faces out as well). New to the club this year – Toby Smith took the honours, jointly with Tom Sharp in a respectable time of 3:26.
After the event we had a nice little ride down into the docks and sat outside for a coffee and a catch up. Many thanks to Ken Dicker, Si Davis-Savage, Steve Ashlinn and David Foxwell for time keeping / marshalling.

The weather on Tuesday was a lot better then the previous weeks, dry, warm and relatively still. 31 people faced the time keeper and there were some great times and lots of PBs.
Big thank you to Matt Dale, Chris Francis, Alex Jolly, Dave Foxwell, Steve Taylor, Phil Derrick and John Backwell for their time, marshaling and time keeping.

Cloudy skies and a stiff wind greeted the riders for the last TT in our series. With Lee away running and swimming in Belgium somewhere, Kieran and John took over the reigns with the help of many regulars along with some new helpers. As always thanks for all the efforts helpers and riders put into this series. KIT have their event next week then it’s the VCB vs KIT Comp on the 18th August.
