Will Parkhouse would have been delighted with such a close fought contest in his Memorial event,
well done everybody!     
On a dry but very windy evening, the times recorded were good, and Richard's win was well deserved
and shows he's keeping his good form.    The weekly battle between Chris and Steve was once more
very close.  It was so nice that Keith and Steven could join in the contest on the tandem. 
Thanks to Teresa and Stephen for their help this evening.

My apologies to Steve Curry and Richard Bowmer for giving the wrong handicap times at the finish, my
mathematics let me down!

Well done all on a gusty evening.

Particularly well done to Richard - I think you have made improvements each mid week you have ridden.

Some strong rides in gusty conditions.  We made 20 seconds on TS to the turn and he took 2 minutes out of us on the way back!

My return leg (into wind) speed is down to a combination of newly shaved legs and covered arms - Steve and Keith were evidently too hairy!

Well done Rich and thanks as ever to our fabulous 'events team'.
