Congratulations to John Warnock for being crowned National 24h TT Champion.
Having finished in 2nd position for the past 2 years, John's 497.12 miles has also established a new Club Record.
"thanks particularly to Stuart Stow, Michael Keohane and Dave Peck who gave up their weekend and to stand on a roadside in the middle of nowhere getting cold and damp. A special mention to David Jack too who has not only supplied bits and pieces for my bike but was also on the phone within two minutes of me going through my final time control to find out how I had done despite making final preparations for the European Track Champs starting today!"

Our Ladies Squad were back in action this week, albeit with a depleted team, but nonetheless delivered a fine performance and secured 3rd place on the day. They currently lie in 4th position in the series.
