This event, originally scheduled for the Brogborough course, will now be held on the Astwood circuit, starting at 6.45pm. This event will start in Astwood, not the BikeBus. Entry is £3.00 (members) and £5.00 (non-members). The original Brogborough course has a road closure until 14th April.
All are welcome: make sure you turn up in time to sign on. You'll need a mechanically sound bike and a bike helmet. We recommend the use of a rear light. You need to be 12 or over to ride time trials; if you are over 12 but under 18 you will need permission from a parent or guardian to take part (download a permission form in pdf format and in Word format).

Results
A foul evening of heavy showers didn't dissuade 12 riders from showing up! The win was taken by Jack Steel-Jessop with a fine 21:04 (made all the more impressive by the conditions).
Steve rolled up tp the start line with a rear wheel puncture, which he valiantly (but ultimately unsuccessfully) tried to repair in heavy rain, while Robert's front brake failed, also on the line.
Next week we're on the Stony Stratford course.
