Hi Mal,
I think we should have enough kind souls lending a helping hand tomorrow, however many thanks for offering, plenty of places for competitors though. I dont know how your fixed in the coming weeks but Rob is organising the next two and Im sure he would be happy to hear from anyone offering to help out.
Regards Andy

£2 to ride tomorrow Will, no need for racing licences at time trials. You just need to be a member of an affiliated club, which Clifton CC is.

Where do you get £14 from?? Most TTs are about £6.50 and road races no more than £13!

Well it was 14 quid for the TLI one I heard thats where I got it from.
So £2, hmm I'll bring 2 quid along and think about joining it, but I really dont know, dont want to blow myself up.
Do I have to bring my Clifton CC card? Just I havent got it together properly yet as not got pic.

The only reason I am going this week is due to the fact it is half term, on college days on thursday I leave college at half 4, so I'd have to go home, get home for 5-5:15, then would have to get changed and eat something etc.., you think I'd be able to make it in time for the start? (Its about 24 miles for me from my house to the where it is).

As Andy said, entry is £2 and for the club TT events you only need to be member of a club, which you are.
The TLI events, by the way, are £10.50 for non-TLI members, £6.50 for TLI members, and it's cheaper even than that if you enter the whole series in advance - something to bear in mind next year. TLI annual membership is £16.

10 quid? Thats cheaper than I thought. I will indeed bear that in mind. Is the course tomorrow hilly do you know?
Is there not a time limit you have to do it in? I cant see myself managing it, not much wind tomorrow but I'll proberbly be managing 20-22mph average maximum possible effort on a flat course so would hate to think what it would be like on anything hilly.

Yes it's hilly. The course profile is on the website on the Regional champs page at

oh err.. I've never been going full throttle when there has been hills before, I really have no idea if I should do this or just watch the other people and maybe do it some other time after I build some more strength and stamina. I'd proberbly get like 16-18mph average on this course compared to 20+ by others.
