SCCA-Parkers Rnd 5. Middleton, Golding & Nickless representing

 

North Shropshire Wheelers 25

 

A second win in as many days for Steve York, a brilliant first time under the hour for young Tom Garbett, and a new Series leader out of the blue - round 5 of the Parker International Series was a memorable morning's work with 10 riders beating the hour. York made his 2013 debut in the Series in the North Shropshire Wheelers' 25, covering the popular Prees - Tern Hill - Hodnet course in 56 minutes 28 seconds. e said afterwards: "It was a reasonable day for the Prees course, I was pleased with my ride".   

 

York outpaced Tony Harvey by 69 seconds, despite the Mid Shropshire Wheeler having fresher legs. But it was the first time effort of Nova Raiders' Richard Nickless that astounded many. Never having ridden a 25 mile event before, Nickless beat the hour at first attempt despite cool conditions and a niggling south-west breeze making for hard going on the Hodnet bypass. He captured third spot on the day in 57:41, just four seconds behind Harvey - and more importantly took over the Series lead from Garbett. This is a feat many riders never achieve and shows the sheer quality of Nickless' ride, which was something special. He remarked: "I was delighted to get my first competitive 25 on the board, and with a time that exceeded my expectations if I'm being honest. The wind kicked up around Espley and on the return section, but thankfully I had the legs for the finish".

 

First home for the promoting team was Ian Boam, capturing 4th spot in 58:37 just a single second ahead of team mate Tim Rex. But it was the performance of Tom Garbett that drew most plaudits as the youngster beat the hour for the first time with a great ride of 59:36. Garbett commented: "I felt good and strong for three quarters of the race and dug deep to hold above the 25mph average". Despite losing his main Series lead to Nickless, Garbett holds the runner-up spot with just eight points to make up, as the youngster increased his lead in the Junior Series.

 

There was some great competition in the Ladies Series with three Wrekinsport riders heading the standings - two tackling the distance for the first time. It was Amanda Whitmore who came out best on the day with a terrific first effort of 1:08:55, taking the win from another first-timer Vicki Bale in 1:11:08. Despite thos Bale still heads the ladies standings.

 

North Shropshire Wheelers also ran a handicap competition for their riders, with Garbett tasting victory again in an adjusted 51:06, just two seconds ahead of Tim Rex.

SCCA 10 mile TT (Round 4) 20.4.13

 

Shropshire Cycling Clubs Association Spring 10 No.3

It was an impressive ride from young Jordan Bason to take the overall win - but it was a tremendous last gasp personal best from Richard Nickless that took the points in round 4 of the Parker International Series in the 3rd SCCA 10 at Waters Upton to narrow the gap to Series leader Tom Garbett. Unaffiliated rider Bason grabbed a clear win in 22 minutes 13 seconds, but Nickless knocked a single second off his personal best to take the maximum 20 points on offer with a fine effort of 22:50.

The Nova Raiders rider clawed two points back from Tom Garbett to at the top of the standings to pull to within just six points of the North Shropshire Wheelers' Junior in what looks like a fantastic battle for supremacy. Garbett had to be content with third spot on the day and was nearly usurp by Daniel Watts, making his first appearance in the Series this year. Garbett stopped the watch on 24:18, with Watts just a second off his pace. But Garbett had an eye on the progress of Wrekinsport's Jason Harland, with Watts' intervention adding four points to his advantage with Harland laying in third spot overall after a good ride of 24:21.

Sundorne Track Riding - Courtesy of MSW CC

 

A Guide to Thursday Evening at Sundorne Track

Throughout the year the club runs a weekly training session on a Thursday evening led by one or more of the club's British Cycling qualified coaches.

It's a good opportunity to do some good quality training whilst improving your bike handling skills and all in a traffic-free environment. If you are thinking about riding any road races then this training session is essential to introduce you to riding at speed in a close group.

There is plenty of car parking on site. Often the side gate is open to allow you to get down to the track. If not walk you bike through reception to access the track. You must not ride your bike within the building.

You sign on and pay a fee of £2 (£1 for juniors).

Due to the popularity of the sessions for winter 2012 we now run two 1-hour groups. The first is for beginners and those not skilled in close group riding. The later session is suitable for experienced riders only.

What happens?

Session 1 starts at 6.30pm and lasts for an hour.

After a warm-up the training may take the form of for example riding in a group doing "through and off" (i.e. drafting or slipstreaming and taking turns at the front like in the peloton), timed laps etc.

Session 2 will comprise groups riding together at speed and going through a set of race simulation scenarios. If you have attended the early session and feel ready to join the later groups then please speak to the senior club members present.

Club members often go to the Café at the Sports village afterwards.

Where does it happen?

At Shrewsbury Sports Village at Sundorne on the purpose built 1km closed cycling circuit (Sports Village website).

When do they take place?

Every Thursday night from 6:30 until 8:30pm unless the track is being used for racing. The track is floodlit after dark.

Who takes part?

We often have around 30 riders or more. Riders are of all ages (11-70 or more!), both sexes and all abilities.

What sort of bike is used?

You can ride on any roadworthy bike. Ideally you should use a road bike i.e. thin wheels and dropped handlebars.

Mountain bikes with big heavy tyres and a not aerodynamic "sit up and beg position" will sap your energy and slow you down.

Tri-bars are not allowed for safety reasons - as you can't steer or brake quickly in a group.

How fit do I need to be?

Not particularly. Just try it, you can always stop for a rest and join back in.

Rules and regulations

Unless you are trying a first session you must be a member of a cycling club. So if you try your first one and want to ride more please join the club.

The event is run under the rules of British Cycling and the session is insured under the British Cycling scheme.

Helmets are compulsory. No Helmet = No Ride.

Safety (very important)

Even though you are riding on a closed circuit you will be riding fast in close contact with other riders and so please be careful and considerate. This is training - not racing!

Cambrian Century Midnight Ride to Barmouth 2013.   Try something different, and raise money for the Severn Hospice.

 

Bicycles By Design will once again be hosting their annual Cambrian Century Midnight Ride to Barmouth on Saturday 3 August. Last year almost 50 riders rose to the challenge and raised just short of £5000 for the work of the Hospice. This year, we hope with your help to raise even more.

The event starts from Bicycles By Design, Church Road, Jackfield, Ironbridge TF8 7AP and finishes at Barmouth with a breakfast bap.

Bicycles by Design is organising this event to raise funds for Severn Hospice and their team will take responsibility for all aspects of the night including repairs, checkpoints and ensuring breakfast is served in Barmouth! The route follows mainly A and B roads and there should be very little traffic on the night. You will begin the night with a led mass start through Ironbridge, once you have left the town you will be able to find your own pace as you make your way to Barmouth.

To see a map of the route click here.

You must be aged 18 years or over to take part in this event. Registration is £30  or £50 to take part and have a place on the bus returning to Shropshire. All you need do to secure your place is click on the ’Sign Up’ button below.

 

Alternatively you can  download a registration form by clicking here. Please make sure you read the terms and conditions of the event before returning your form. You can also receive an information pack by post or email by contacting the Appeals Team on 01952 221 36 or appeals@severnhospice.org.uk .

If you have any questions about the type of bike you should ride or queries about the route please contact the team at Bicycle By Design on 01952 459 900 who will be more than happy to help.

Parker International Series - Round 1 Preview

 

The Parker International Series kicks off for another season this Sunday when North Shropshire Wheelers promote their ‘Hawkstone Hilly’ 19 mile event at 9am, the first of an extended 18 round season-long programme. Starting opposite Lower Heath School on the B5065, the course has a fast – and flat – first leg westwards to the A49, turning south towards Weston-Under-Redcastle crossroads before the climbing begins in earnest past Hawkstone Follies. A further climb to Marchamley is followed by a technical series of bends past Marchamley Wood before commencing a second circuit. This entry-on-the-line event is open to all comers, with signing on and parking at The Raven Cafe, Prees. Riders should allow 15 minutes to transfer the four miles between headquarters and the start, which should be used as a warm-up
