A45 10TT - 2019/#14 - 18/06/19 Results
Results for a rather damp, but fast, round #14 of the 2019 TT series on the A45.
After a lot of deliberation, monitoring of the road conditions and watching the satellite rain image development, we decided to go ahead as on the course itself it wasn't really too bad. Out of the 8 riders who turned up for the TT, 4 managed to improve their PB's despite the loss of time for everyone on the wet sharp corners and roundabouts, which I would estimate at between 15s and 20s for the whole course. Eddie was again fastest on the night, with another PB at 21:33. We also had the pleasure of the Barker brothers, after many years off, riding tandem, who despite losing almost a minute due to a dropped chain, managed a very rapid 22:33.
Thanks to all the riders for putting up with the deliberation and well done, and to Steve, Lee and Trystan for support help.

2019/#13 moving from A45 to Salcey
Hi everyone, unfortunately, but probably of no surprise to most, the A45 course is not deemed to be safe in the current weather conditions for a TT tonight and will be moved to the backup course, the Salcey course. This also means it will only be a 10TT tonight.
First rider off at 7:15PM, booking in opens from approx 6:15pm.

A45 10TT - 2019/#12 - 04/06/19 Results
Results for round #12 of the 2019 Club TT Championship
Well the entries were a little sparse tonight, probably due to the weather, but yet again, it cleared up and the meeting ran under almost clear blue skies and very little wind. Only one PB tonight for John Osborne. Fastest time on the day was by Eddie Smith with a 22:05, only 7 seconds more than last week so it wasn't that bad an evening by any means. Second fastest on the night and fastest club rider was Trystan Barnett on 22:34 having lost timne on the turn.
Thanks to the helpers, Peter and Trystan, and also Fabos for marshalling at the turn.

Shocking Local Course News...A45 limited life
|
If you want to get your outright PB's on the fastest course locally I would suggest that you do as many of the A45 TT's you can...... I just had some shocking (for us) news. Northamptonshire Highways have put a proposal together under the Northamptonshire Growth Management Scheme (NGMS) which will be shared with local residents and businesses. The upshot is that if it goes ahead, the adding of traffic lights at the top of both of the off-ramps, will mark the end of the A45 as a TT course for us. Currently the delivery plan states sometime between 2020 and 2021. I guess this would be subject to funding. Full details can be found here... |
