Saturday 24th March N&DCA Time Trial, 2 pm start time

20/3/2018

0 Comments

 
​Please let me know if you can help!
We are again hosting ‘Round One’ of the Northampton & District Cycling Association time trial series, on the 18.7 miles version of our Middleton course. Normally held on the second Saturday in April the event has been brought forward to avoid conflict with traffic from local events. We normally have 70-100 entries; I hope this early date won’t put off too many.
Again we need lots of help for the event – approximately 20 people including around 15 marshals, plus a holder-up at the start, somebody to help the finish timekeeper, someone to collect the finish times, help in the canteen, help with signing on, help with the results, and MOST IMPORTANTLY a few people to make some CAKES for the canteen.
The N&DCA TT Series http://www.northamptondca.org.uk/events 
is a great opportunity to experience short and medium distance time trialling on safe courses around our district and enjoy some friendly competition with riders from the association clubs. There are overall and category prizes for juveniles, juniors, ladies, seniors and masters age groups in each event and for a season long points championship open to association club members of which we are one. So far we have three entries from Rocko’s : Julian Freeman, John Dainty and Michael Harvey.

Entering closes next week, 13th March

The trophy rules have been reviewed and tidied for 2017.  The main changes are for CX trophies, otherwise just clarifications.  Many thanks to Norman Abraham for doing this, and Norman Needham for checking them.  The rule, as always, can be found on the Club Rules page.

Hill Climb Date

24/7/2017

0 Comments

 
The date for the annual hill climb competition with our rivals at Kettering CC has been set.  It will start at 10:00 on Sunday 10th September in the usual place, near the bottom of Nevill Holt hill in Drayton.  No change to the format, a timed route up from Drayton, then after an insufficient recovery time, up the same hill from the Medbourne side.

We need as many members as possible to enter this event, as points are awarded to the top 20 finishers across both clubs.  I remember a couple of years ago we lost the trophy simply because we didn't have enough entrants from RFW in the middle of the finishers, meaning that KCC picked up enough cheap points to win.

SO PLEASE PUT THIS DATE IN YOUR CALENDAR NOW AND SUPPORT THE CLUB.

TRACK INTEREST

3/1/2017

 
Come on Rocko, where's the interest in track cycling gone?  This club introduced me to the track, and now I run sessions that attract riders from all over the SE Midlands and beyond, but I rarely see more than a couple of other Rocko riders.  It is great training and builds skills; it has led me into racing and I don't care what the weather does!
