Handicap 10 - This season's last 10mi

Very sadly this was the last seasons 10. The evening had a little wind but for me personally felt pretty hard. Someone no doubt will point out that the boxing day 10 is actually on this years schedule!

Being that this was a handicap, every year there is a ringer!

I can say this without hesitation as I've been one of them in the past. Changing out box rim wheels for a disc and a deep section come the last race of the season.

Now this years winner, did it even better. He went to a full TT rig and aero helmet and but in a bloody good effort! (Okay no disc, only semi aero wheels). Fair play to Max who managed 19:56 on handicap! No doubt some fast times from Max next season.

The handicaps working pretty well as most people coming within a minute of each other.

With the usual timers away other people stepped in.

Many thanks to Tim and Sam for doing the turn, Fallon for pushing off and Sammie for doing the timing and working out the handicaps at the end.

Tomorrows event is the long hill climb up Cat's hill. Remember we don't meet at walford for this, its at the Bishopswood village hall. Heading out of ross on the Walford course, after kerne bridge take the next right (please dont try and turn into the bus stop!). We park in the public car park just outside the hall. Sign on at 6:30ish for a 7pm kick off. Oh and when i say long hill climb, its not that long, as it takes about the same time as getting to the turn at Lydbrook when doing the 10 from Walford :)

We won't be retiring to the Rowing club, so I expect we will end up in the Prince of Wales. Check with the people at the event to be sure!
