Members Iain67 Posted September 3, 2016 Members Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Good day out Alex, Sorry Davy C for the slow time, first official time trial ever and probably should have went faster on way out and not held it in reserve for way back. Can only get better I suppose....... DavidC, Gerard Deeley and ginty001 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexb Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Was great to see so many Wheelers there today. Was so glad to see the back of it and to clean George's bike ready for its return (thanks George!) never to ride a blasted TT again. Now I'm wondering how I could strip 31 seconds off my time... Is this how this TT madness starts??? robster82, KennyS, Gerard Deeley and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted September 3, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Well done From what i gather the 2 hours 12 time is faster than what the course record was until a couple of years ago.

alexb Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Training? I suppose that could be a starting point. Not having a big smile when I should be knocking my pan in could be another! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Michael Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Great day, didn't realise how many Fullerton wheelers there are but oh well. Next year 😆. Once alex has his new TT bike and Gerrard has a disc the trophy will be ours 😉 alexb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted September 3, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 I reckon we could beat Fullartons time next year! We were missing some folk plus if we committed to it we could all improve I'm sure. That was only my 3rd TT today, on a road bike, the last one being 2 years ago so I could improve from 17'23" for sure. We were chatting today about a TT points system next year a bit like how Jan has run the chain gang in Thursday's with points for turning up, winning and pbs. Might be fun!

JaneF Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Guys. Don't reinvent the wheel! The club has been running tt' s on this course for years. Maybe one of you would like to organise the confined events next year as Graham is going to be away too much to take it on again?? The chocolate series sounds like the competition described above.

The chocolate series sounds like the competition described above.Hi Jane I dont think Amdy means to run another event. It was just an idea to have a points system to run alongside the chocolate night. So people who dont qualify for chocolate trophy have something to motivate them(and have some fun) throughout the year. Nothing would change except a spreasheet added 😉. Grahams done a great job with the confineds and will be a real pity to loose his input. JaneF and charlie p 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions Gerard Deeley Posted September 4, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 About this points idea. We should consider anything that encourages our members and any new members along to our TTs (or any event). The simplicity of just a time is pure and attractive in itself alone, the very essence of TTs. Anything else should not interfere with this but should enough of us think that an additional incentive is worth a shot then a system should be considered. We have the winter months to thrash out the details and assess interest. We should at least do it on a separate thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an interesting conversation and the patter of post Georgetown excitement got me thinking. I did like the idea of the points system as it has been very successful on the Thursday night chain gang Andy JaneF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions AlanT Posted September 5, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 The chocolate series and the sub 26 chocolate series are already decided on a handicapped points system, the handicap being the best Westferry 10 time in the preceding 3 years. This is also the case with the league of 10. What has been missing for the last few years is a wide member participation, so I'm all for the enthusiastic uptake. Can I suggest that if there is to be any further discussion around this that we move it into the members only part of the bunch?
