There is a change of info regarding the Cardiff 100 Milers "10" - The  course to be used is R10/9 -not as we were led to believe on our Club course.  The H.Q. will be the Community Hall at St Athan West and I will be the Start Timekeeper.  So have a great Christmas, and come out to the opening event of 2016 Season on New Years Day.

General Discussion / Re: Club dinner 2015 - date for your diary..
« on: November 28, 2015, 04:20:29 PM »
Thanks to all for a great night out.  The new venue in the St.Quentin Suite at The Bear, was just great.  Please book it again for next year!  Magnus was a memorable guest, he must be the most focussed cyclist i've met - All those years just planning to win a "cobble".   I'm already looking forward to next years' Dinner!

General Discussion / Re: Club dinner 2015 - date for your diary..

On a slightly different note. For many years we have a tradition at the club dinner of cross toasting. We noticed last year that quite a few did not know what was going on. This is a tradition that goes on at many cycling dinners, and it is one that we would like to continue with. So we thought we'd put up a few pointers. The cross toasting is opened by the club president aka Norman James, immediately after the 1st course is finished. He knocks the table to gain people's attention, raises his glass and makes a toast to someone in the room. This may be congratulatory or amusing. Something that person has "achieved" throughout the season. That person also stands up and raises his glass in response. Then the floor is open to all and sundry to congratulate or embarrass anyone they choose. The banter can be very amusing for all guests. You'll soon get the gist of it on the night. So start getting yourselves armed with some witty repertoire. I think we fall short of actually downright insulting anyone. So play nice. Cross toasting is then closed after the last course by toasting the Queen. Good luck and have fun. :)

Also take note that dress code is smart i.e no jeans or T. shirts. See you on the night.

General Discussion / CLUB PERSON OF THE YEAR
« on: October 09, 2015, 06:34:56 PM »
Yes it's that time again. Please send your nominations and reason's for your choice. I believe that Teresa will put a link up for the form to send to myself. It is all private and confidential. Nominees will be voted for at the club AGM.  It is important to give your reason's, as you may nominate someone we don't know personally, and it's very hard to brag someone up, if there is no information on what they have done on the club's behalf.

Time Trials / RETURN OF CLUB TROPHIES
« on: October 06, 2015, 06:59:15 PM »
A  reminder that trophies are now overdue for return. Norman and hopefully myself will be in club this Friday 9th October. I cannot get them engraved for this years winners, if they are not in my possession. Also I'm sure you would not like to disappoint this years winner's by having no trophy to present to them. They are deserving winner's and nothing is more disappointing than not receiving a hard earned award. If you cannot come to the clubroom yourself then please pass them on to someone who can. This is now getting urgent. Regards Lynne.

Time Trials / Midweek event 20th August 2015
« on: August 20, 2015, 08:44:42 PM »
Weather dried up enough for the event and was actually quite warm. A grand total of 3 riders and 3 helpers turned out this evening. Results are as follows
1st Vince Thomas            OVW                    22.51     
     Chris Goodwin            OVW                    23.54      10 points
     Steve Curry                OVW                    26.42        9 points

Norman put out signs, finish timekeeper and recorder and signing on
Lynne    numbers start timekeeper and signage
Andy     Signage and starter


Just a reminder that the end of the racing season is nigh and for those of you that have ridden in open events need to send me their times. Thankyou to those who thus far have complied. The format is as follows
Name of open event, course no.
Winners name, club and time
Your time.

Also that all trophies are due in by the 30th September, which gives me time to get them to engravers and returned in time for presentation dinner. Cheers all.
