Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb

[DaveM]

Following on from the success of the first ever Cycle hill climb at Shelsley Walsh in 2014 we will be running the event again on 4th October 2014. This year we are fortunate to have additional sponsors which will mean a significant increase in the prize list; over £400. There will be prizes for the best three riders in each category, as well as the Sunnycam cup for the fastest time in any category. The categories are under 14, Juvenile/Junior, Espoir/Senior Men, Women, Veterans and Disabled.

 

I hope you will be able to join us on the day as a rider or spectator.

We have a team! All details posted above.

[Sean Barker]

Good luck Paul, Philip and Dave

[DaveM]

Before anything else - the thank you's.  Whoever is responsible for the weather take a bow as it could not have been  better.  Cloudless sky, 15 degrees and no wind.

Next the Saracens who turned out today and made this event a club run. Far too many to list and I can't tell you how much it means to hear the shouts of encouragement on the course from you and our friends in other clubs. Hope you enjoyed the day as much as I did......... What?

Also to Ken Haddon who had kindly loaned me a set of carbon wheels again for this season making all the difference to my times.

Superb effort by the team today with Phil Carbutt leading us at 4:41, ( great to see Phil with a number on again ) I followed with 5:10 and Paul Haynes was breathing down my neck with 5:18.

See you all next year.

 

[Sean Barker]

We (the B's) may have been a little late to the party but it looked a great day and one not to be missed for next year..

Well done to Paul, Phill and Dave for excellent performances.

Bet I would have beat them all rolling down !!!
