Weather more reminiscent of March than mid June, greeted the 6 riders for the Merstone 10. Cold grey skies and steady rain made the course slow and a bit precarious in places and the times reflected this

A damp, chilly 12 deg Celsius greeted the 7 riders competing the 2 Laps South Wight course. Heavy rain the previous night meant that riders had to keep an eye out for debris on the course. Luckily the rain held off for the race and the reward at the end was a showing of the Chairmans new Colnago!
____________________Wed 3rd JuneGood weather stayed with us for the 1 Lap South Wight and the light winds were in a favourable direction for the eleven riders. ____________________Sun 31st May 2009
Entries for the Hillis 25M were dissapointingly low. But spookily, it was the same riders that contested the fog-boung Military Sprint Pt 1 that turned up! Conditions were absolutely perfect, so if you did not bother to get up early you missed the chance to get a good time! PB's were set and we had a great time. Many thanks to Dave and John who acted as timekeepers, well done!

Weather conditions for the Military Sprint Pt1 were more reminiscent of March, than early summer! 5 brave riders could hardly see each other in the heavy fog at the Blackgang Viewpoint car Park! Coupled with damp, cool conditions and a mean SW wind of about 20 MPH made the course not for the faint hearted and times reflected this. Take a look at the Gallery page, to get a flavour of the night!!!
