Tommy Godwin Challenge


Recommended Posts

This would be the ideal event for a club entry, not expensive and the proceeds going to a very good cause.  Any takers?  http://tommygodwinchallenge.weebly.com/

Hello Hannah,

Ken and I will be meeting at the Tesco Express, (to ride over to the start) on the corner of The Old Birmingham Road, Braces Lane and Linehouse Lane, just up the hill from The Forest.

The bad news is we must leave by 7.15 am.

Hope to see you there, and anyone else wanting to ride over, should take about an hour.

What a great day for a ride in the Warwickshire lanes.

Sorry Gary couldn't make it appears he has a bad back.

Five of us met up at Solihull for the Tommy Godwin 100K sportive.

 

Chris Poole

John Shelley

Ken Haddon

Kevin Young

and myself.

 

preparing to start Kevin was looking after his other half at the time.

Kevin push on without us to get a fast time in although we did see him leaving the finish as we got back.

I think we all enjoyed a pleasant day in the saddle along with some Solihull riders.

 

A well deserved cup of tea and an excellent apple pie and custard in the Hospice after the finish gave us

time to discuss the days run

Nice of Mike Lawrence to be at the finish to see us back well done to him for riding over and showing the club colours.

 

Small problem the extra miles of the return ride home via Earlswood Lakes, fortunately

I left John and Ken at Weatheroak so that they could struggle up Bear Hill together from Alvechurch

before droping down to Bromsgrove.
