45RC TT #14/25 - 20th June 2017 Results
Results from the Salcey TT, round 14 of 25. We have a new number 1 on the club TT leaderboard.
It was a superb evening for a TT and a great many people probably chose not to ride based on the temperatures at 4pm, but on the course at 7pm is was a perfect evening for a 10TT!
Some great rides took place, with Fabos Young again showed his class with a blistering 21:48s for his first competition ride on his TT bike and only 32s off the outright course record, beating young Jack Patmore who also did a very creditable 22:31s almost catching his father Martin, a superb effort. I'll bet they are both looking forward to riding on the A45 course in similar conditions, both could be joining the sub-20 10TT club! Another rider who also excelled was Junior rider Trystan Barnett with a cracking 26:13 taking over a minute off his PB.
Well done to all the riders that turned out, and especially to Hitesh Mehta, who took part in his very first TT and finished with a very creditable 31:09, and a 19+ mph average on his full weight road bike.

45RC TT #13/25 - A45 10m & 25m - Tuesday 13th June
IMPORTANT NOTICE: IMPORTANT NOTICE:Following a great deal of work, by many people, on getting a TT up and running tonight, it seems that the powers that be are against us this week and with great regret I have to announce that due to more roadworks tonights TT (13/06/17), is officially cancelled. We tried, really hard, I can assure you.
IMPORTANT!!! I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news yet again, but after todays course check prior to tonights TT is it apparent we have a major problem with the A45. Having spoken with Northamptonshire Highways about the scope and extent of these roadworks they have informed us that they will be coning down the section between at least Earls Barton and Doddington from 2 to 1 lane and the A45 will be totally closed from Doddington onwards to the Wellingborough Roundabout from 8:00pm. This evening closure was due to start on the 12th June and is scheduled to last until at least the 2nd of July, this closure has basically wiped out all our A45 TT's from the calendar. We are endeavouring to contact the CTT and Northants Police with a view to moving all the A45 events to the Salcey course. Please keep checking here, or on our Facebook groups pages for an update on if we can effect this course change at such a late date. |
Check out the weather forecast for tomorrow on the A45, sunny intervals, 20 degC and 5mph Westerly, brilliant evening looks likely!
Please do not forget you REAR LIGHT, it is important when riding on a dual carriageway, no working light on the start line, then no start for you!
