Quick Quinn Crushes Competition
The 2nd of the clubs confined events took place on the 14th June, 2015.The final of the confined events takes place in October, for the annual hill climb.
There was an excellent turnout on what turned out to be a bitterly cold and damp morning, however spirits were high.
Huge thanks must go to all riders who participated, and gave maximum effort.
Also much appreciation to those who helped out, Stephen, Dick, Mark, Ron, Colin and Officer Dibble.
Anyone considering joining the club, is encouraged to come along to a normal club run, starting at 9am from Newmains Cross, at the big roundabout near to Asda Newmains.
Difficult conditions, with a nasty wind and rather chilly temperature meant suffering was ahead for the riders.
All completed the course with a number of good times from the big guns.
Club "nutritionist"Taylor had half a bowl of special K to stoke his engine, and was clearly brimming with confidence as set off gently while playing candy crush on his phone.
Taylor has also highly recommended Cheesy Wotsits and a Curry Pie for a post ride recovery meal. The club have backed a submission to the British Cycling team, and are expecting to see Froome and Porte stocking up on Bell's Pies in prep for the Tour de France.

The battle of the day was to be between Ian Brownlea and Sean Quinn for the second week.
Would Ian be pipped for a second week, or would he resort to sabotage?
The handicap calculator seems to have malfunctioned, mainly due to Colin being unable to work them out. Full handicap results to follow!
