CLUB RIDE
Gina has decided to stand down from organising Saturday’s Club Ride, she has done a marvellous job
and introduced us to many new routes and cafe’s, so a big thank you from the committee for all of your
hard work and good luck in the future with the longer Wednesday rides.
Going forwards.
I’m prepared to step back in temporarily for a few weeks until we find a new leader or decide another way
forward. However, the start time would need to be moved back to 9.30am, just to allow me to ride out to the start.
So, with that in mind, I’m looking for feedback/idea’s how we take it forward from members who join the club ride or
members who have previously joined or any members for that matter.
Example:-
Do you want the Club ride to carry on or cease?
Would you prefer the ride continues with a 9am or 9.30am start?
Would you prefer a shorter or slower ride?
Would you prefer to get back home earlier?
Would you prefer not to have anything planned, no ride leader and just turn up at the Criffel Stone and decide the route on the day?
Any other ideas you might have?
Any other ideas/suggestions that you can think of.
All replies will be treated in the utmost confidence.

And finally
MALLORCA 312
Former member Mario Aigner completed the 312 last Saturday.
He completed 192 miles, climbed 15,156 ft in a time of 12 hours 16 mins.
Well done Mario.
Phil Williams
Sadly, 40 year old Phil Williams from Liverpool Braveheart died in the event.
Phil had competed several times in our evening 10’s, in fact he held the course
record for a while.
He also still holds the course record for our hill climbing event.
Our thoughts are with his family.
