martin reacted to George in Restricted Gear TT, Thursday 4th July 7:00 for 7:15
Charlie, the chain gang isn’t an official club event so there’s nothing stopping anyone from attending that instead. I think Alan would just like club members to support the TT. You being a klassiker roadman aren’t suited to these events that require putting your pug like nose in the wind.
I’m sure both events will be well attended- the TT supported by rippling Adonis types, the chain gang with the usual riff-raff, hoi polloi, footpads & cut purses.
I’ll be at neither

Quick report for those who don't Facebook. Very successful weekend for the club at the nationals with 4 golds: Jamie T and Isla M both winning the youth B (under 14) scratch race and omnium.
Great racing from all our riders across all three days.

Gerard and Sam flying the JWCC flag today, as well as a good bunch of Jets.
1st espoir for Sam in the hill climb, while Louie Dixon won both youth events (and sneaked off with 4th overall prize in the HC as well). Good day out down the water as ever.

We need to take a bit more care before the west ferry. Going through the roundabout and up the on ramp is not the final 300 metres in the Tour de France from Rivoli onto the Champs Elysees. If there is a car on the roundabout then the bunch should be stopping for it not riding through. However only 3 stopped tonight!
The speed is such that if guys at the front had slammed on their brakes then others may go into the back of them so I can understand why it was (arguably) the safe choice to make by then but that to me suggests that on the final part of the downhill we should be easing slightly instead of trying to keep as much speed and momentum as possible for going up the drag. Same thing applies on the downhill before the Crosslee roundabout. You cannot see what is coming until it is too late. I'm as guilty as anyone for going fast through that if im on the front but i'm going to try and be more safety conscious from now on.
Anyway what was the scores?
Kom - i think Sam, Marc, Galeb then who?
Sprint - Marc, Sam, Me, Billy, Galeb

martin reacted to Iain67 in Bealach Na Ba
Looking to see if there would be any interest in doing the Bealach Na Ba on the August bank holiday weekend? Drive up either Fri 22nd Aug or Sat 23rd coming back either Sun 24th or Mon 25th Aug. Staying in Applecross campsite www.visitapplecross.com, where we can rent camping huts. They currently have availability on these dates, so let me know who's interested? 626 meters climbing in 9.1kms, maximum 20% but worth it for a few cold ones in the Applecross Inn afterwards.
link below showing the climb and surrounding area

Good wee group of 14 and 15 year olds there, riding road, track, cross, mtb as well as the TT. They have a great attitude, train hard and have a laugh.

Thank you to all of our helpers tonight, it is always much appreciated. A reasonably calm night, the wind was not really a hinderance. Some great times from the Jets, is it the quality coaching?
