11 Riders took part in the 4th time trial of the season. Fearsome midgies and a fairly strong wind were definitely the order of the night. Well done to Cammie for a great win. Well done also to Pete Berrie for a great comeback after 6 years away and a wee wobble at the beginning! Next race is the Glenfinnan 25 on July the 13th.
Norman appeared at kid’s club on Saturday sporting a brand new hairstyle. Long gone were his flowing lockdown curls, having been replaced by an impressive multicoloured mohican. He even engineered a helmet that would allow it to poke through! Congratulations to Norman for raising £700 at the last count. Half of this money is going towards Pancreatic Cancer charity and half is going towards the Pump track. Rock on Norman!
The Time Trial that nearly never was! Many thanks to Pete Berrie for single-handedly ensuring that the race went ahead. Next race is the Loch Eil 10 on Tuesday the 22nd of June.
12 riders took part in the second of this years summer time trials series at Loch Eil. Despite a reasonably strong head wind for the return leg, the weather was generally very favourable after the rain of the last few days. Having held Jamie Gall off, and winning by 17 seconds Alastair Maclennan was heard to say something along the lines of ” you never totally lose your racing mojo, you sometimes just temporararily misplace it!” ( apologies for any misquote). Well done to all those who took part and great to see some new faces. Many thanks to all the organisers. Next race is at Laggan Dam on June the 8th.

A great turnout for the first Time trial of 2021. The ever popular Commando Memorial route saw some great racing. Standout result has got to be Cory Muir showing his father how to do it! Many thanks to Emma, Dave and Alastair for getting the series up and running again. Next race is the Loch Eil 10 on May the 25th.
