Cruckton Fives round 2, 25 April 2023 - results
Tuesday evening saw 20 riders sign on for the second of the spring 5 mile time trials from Westbury to Cruckton, finishing on Shoot Hill. Our thanks go to Dave and Jenny York for organising and timekeeping, to our volunteer marshals and to the Lion Inn in Westbury for hosting the HQ. A light South-Easterly breeze saw quicker times than last week and the positive feedback from riders has prompted us to consider whether to run a couple more towards the end of the Summer.

Cruckton Fives round 1, 18 April 2023 - results
Tuesday evening saw 21 riders sign on and had to contend with a strong headwind for most of the 5.25 mile course from Westbury to Cruckton, before a little relief on the flatter run to the finish on Shoot Hill. There were some lively conversations afterwards in the Lion Inn (thank you Bob) and we'll be back for more of the same next Tuesday... preferably without that headwind!
You can enter online at https://www.riderhq.com/events/p/hnu3e4kl/enter - £5 senior, £3 junior. Online entry closes on Monday 24th April at 23:59, you can also enter on the night for £1 extra. Sign on from 18:00,... Read more »
