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

20/3/2018

​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.

Last Saturday I rode the Tin Can 10  time trial (10.4 miles ); I only came 5th  (31.53), while the winner did a 28 minute.
I was thinking that next year more riders could enter from the Rocko ?? 
Have You got a hub geared bike?  Any type will do - Shopper, Brompton , Hetchins even a Chopper!  As long as the gears are in the HUB  (Sturmley Archer etc.) 
You have about a year to source one out; check out  http://www.bikejumbles.co.uk/tincanten/index.html
Let me know if your interested, next years event is July 7th 2018.  Just turn up on the day  -  entry £3, free teas /cakes  (donations).
It's a nice afternoon out  
Regards John Dainty
