Gwyn's South Wales trip went well, 11 were in the group, a new option was hiring a local guide who took them on a 30 mile ride.
14.Racing secretary’s report
N/A
15.Time Trial Secretary’s report
In view of the increasingly difficult conditions on the Horsham circuit this has now been abandoned and this year the club will stick to the shorter nine mile circuit at Horne.
Because of the need for extra marshalls and the right turn at Bones Lane it is felt this is the better option.
The possibility of extending the none mile to ten by starting and finishing at different points is to be looked into.
