Finsbury Park Cycling Club Reliability Trial

The Finsbury Park Cycling Club is once again holding its annual Reliability Trial through the lanes of Hertfordshire in aid of Road peace, the organization campaigning for Road Safety and for justice for the victims of crashes caused by reckless or careless driving.

There are two routes – a 50km and a 100km – and route cards will be given out at the HQ on the day. The long route heads North, skirts Hertford and continues West between Hitchin and Stevenage. It then turns South through rolling country before returning to Potters Bar through the short sharp hills of ‘Little Switzerland’. The shorter route turns South earlier but has its share of ups and downs too.

The entry fee is a nominal £5 and refreshments will be available at the HQ.

Further info is available from Sam Parker samparker1uk@yahoo.co.uk

I look forward to seeing many riders out on the 16th of February.

Many thanks in advance for your time.

Kind regards
Sam

Due to circumstances outside the control of Cycling Time Trials and the Event Organisers, it has been necessary to change both the date and the location of the 2014 12hr Championship.

The 2014 RTTC National Championship 12hr will now be the Team Swift event on Sunday 27th July.

The WCTTCA event which was scheduled to be held on 17th August will now be on 31st August.

We would be very grateful if you could publicise this course through your clubs.

Please can you let me know if you or any of your clubs mates would like to attend so that we have an idea on numbers,  also if you email can you put your club name somewhere in the text.

If you have access to your club stopwatches,  please can you bring them with you so that you can get used to using them, although I do have a few spare ones for you to borrow on the night.

Take care
Su  and Mick
