Apologies to anyone who has already read the results and been mystified, but thanks to Paul Ogle for pointing them out. I’m going to blame it on old age, but then I can’t because I keep telling myself I’m only 21 so it must be something else, what about blaming the computer. Hope these results are now OK.

On Wednesday 17th June at 7.00pm is the second promotion by Rutland CC this year a ten mile tt at Cuckney. Club riders include Geoff Hague, Simon Keeton, our web designer Danny Lowthorpe and Mark Jacobi, who is acting as my carrott and the return to racing of JohnKettle (where have you been?) So as Calver-Baslow series is suspended this week why not go down to Cuckney to cheer your team mates on and enjoy some tea and buns after.
In spite of the weather 3 riders rode the shortened course and made me feel very guilty as I decided that no one would possibly turn out on a night that it was, and at the last minute did not go (how wrong can you be). I had tried to phone Danny and Paul Ogle to see if they were riding but no replies, I promise I won’t miss out again. The three riders timed themselves and as the event is run on a points basis less than accurate timings didn’t matter too much as they were widely spaced. Below is the link to the state of play
Find below the results from this mid-week time trial series at Calver. Massive thanks go out to Gordon for organsing these events !!!
Hi Everyone,
We had a meeting of the Rutland CC last night and the subject of the mid week events at Calver was discussed, Stuart Smith has an event booked on the Cuckney course for the 17th june 7.00 pm start and Phil Morgan (KPCC) has one booked for the 1st July and I am doing the results for both these events so I can’t be at Calver. It was decided that it would be better if we cancelled the ones at Calver on these dates as most of the people who ride at Calver would be entering the events at Cuckney. Would you please pass this info on to as many of your club mates as possible.
The mid week time trial series on the Calver eight mile course starts again on 27th May 2009. The events will run for ten weeks and are entry on the line. A riders best six rides will count towards an overall prize. Last years triumphant winner John Hadfield was unavailable for comment. Get yourself down there and have a go, it’s a great little event !!!
The Tuesday night chain gang has started again from the south side of the city. This year we have been meeting up at the Norfolk Arms pub at about twenty past to half past six.
The route is up to Stanage, down Burbage, right onto Surprise then down into Hathersage. The through and off starts just out of the village then it’s down to Castleton before a turn at the bottom of Winatts and then back along the valley. We then take a right back in Hathersage along to Grindleford and Calver before coming home via Froggatt.
The pace is fairly brisk and it is a training ride so there’s not normally any waiting. See you there…I love it !!!!
Rutland riders were in action this weekend at various events as the 2009 racing season officially got underway.
Marc and Darren were a very credible thrid in the the Sheffrec two up on the Hatfield woodhouse. More details of which can be seen here SheffRec two up.
Meanwhile over at Darley Moor Danny and Matt Horton were in action in the PE/1/2/3 race. Matt finished nicely in the bunch and reported afterwards…”It was hard”…Danny got dropped halfway through the event and was later seen riding home from the event in a sulk…;-)
