It was a disappointing and damp end to the Belper BC competitive season. With the rain falling hard, no competitors showed up. Earlier that morning, Ashley and I wondered if anyone would come given the weather conditions, and unfortunately, we were right - no one did. We had our flags out and were ready to go, but the competitors stayed away. It was a sad end to the day.
Hopefully, next year will bring better weather. On a positive note, the time trials and the previous hill climb had good turnouts throughout the season. One of the highlights was the post-storytelling at the Devonshire.
I want to extend my thanks to all those who supported the events by competing and volunteering. Personally, and on behalf of the Club, thank you for your assistance. See you all next year.
PS Ash decided to run it instead 🤣
Sorry I couldn’t make it. If only I’d turned up and ridden I would have come 1st! Well done Mark and Ash for your efforts and time.
