At the moment, we have Me, Alan, Alec, John C. I think Scott, Derek and Paul are doing it as well. Not sure about anyone else. We're organising lifts etc. at the club meeting on Friday. Alec said he should be able to all all bikes down in the van so we'll only need 1 other car to get us all down. _________________ It never gets easier, you just get faster. |

Never mind by the looks of it, it's going to be freezing so i don't think you'll miss much.
If your late with an entry it's always best to phone because you'll get a yes or no there and then |

Four Albert riders started todays race Steven,John,Alec and myself. Fantastic weather for todays race simply it couldn't have been any better, with John and Alec off in the first group and Steven and Me in the second. John escaped the bunch accompanied by Wee Davie Miller while the second and third bunches came together on lap 3, the first group was soon swallowed up just leaving John and Davie at the head of the race. A chase was on and they were brought back into the bunch, gallant effort from John as he proved to be strong for the rest of the race. Alec put in some great efforts at the front, as the bunch hurtled along the Grassyards road but gravity took it's toll on Alec as we started the hiller parts of the course. Steven was playing a blinder always looking well within himself and watching all the moves, doing great turns at the front. He should have been a poker player cause if he was in any trouble it certainly never showed. The run to the finish was fast and furious, this was where yours truely came unstuck as i was involved in a crash a mile from the finish. This was a very strong showing by the Albert riders well done guys.
A big thank you also goes to Tommy Murray,Smudger and Johns brother Dougie for coming along and giving us support which was very much appreciated.
Till the next adventure keep those wheels turning. |
