Reg Pearce Memorial Race

Thank you all for taking part in the Reg Pearce Memorial race and we hope you had a good ride and enjoyed the course and atmosphere in the HQ afterward.

There were some exceptional performances in this year’s event held on a challenging 10 mile out and back course with a couple of punishing ascents and a grippy first and last 2 miles.  Conditions on the day were good but not perfect, mild and dry with a light south-westerly wind.

Emily Meakin (AWOL O’Shea Worx) was the first to ‘shine’ setting a new women’s course record with a time of 21:13. Then Ashley Cox (Team Botrill) set a new Men’s’ Open course record of 19:13.  Another performance of note, which there were many, was Callum Twelves (Team Ohten Aveas) who as a junior on restricted gears finished in a time of 20:54, 3^rd fastest overall!   Kate Pilling (Ful-on Tri) in her first ever TT won the women’s road bike event and Tomas Mason(Brixton Cycles Club) who was a long way from home won the men’s RB event.  Tim Hood (Team Botrill) was fastest Vet and 4^th overall fastest showing that age is no limiting factor.

Yes this year Stafford Road Club will be hosting 9 club Time Trials and 1 Open Time Trial event.

Each of the club events will be run as ‘come and give it a go events’ so you can just turn up and ride.

Our Open Event ‘The Reg Pearce Memorial Race’ on Saturday 21^st May is classified as an Open A event where riders will need to pre-enter before the closing date on the 10^th May.

This year we are also trying to encourage more people to participate, so on club events road bikes will be given a time bonus over TT bikes and in the Open event there will be separate competitions for road bikes and TT bikes for men, women, juniors.
