We had 12 riders on the start sheet for this evening's event. The weather was probably the best we've had so far this season - sunny, warm, and not very windy. It seemed to me that the traffic flow during the event was a bit odd, maybe traffic lights elsewhere? On the roadworks front, the traffic lights in Astwood itself didn't have a direct impact on the event, but some riders may have had a bit of a delay joining the main road just after the start.

Anyway, congratulations to Leigh for hsi win tonight. he was riding ostensibly to make sure he could ride his TT bike properly ahead of an event this weekend, not having touched it for many months. Maybe I should do the same! He was followed in by Mark and Robert. Robert took the win on vet standard.

Many thanks to Dick Selley for the sign placing, and to John Reed for timekeeping. John was there on his luxury gravel bike, I think he'd already had a 6hr ride!
