PRESTIGE POINTS COMPETITION

We are finding it difficult to let everyone know the state of play as most of the events are outside our district and organised by other groups, but we are still up to date ourselves. Hopefully next year will see us back to normal and most of the events will be under the Nth Mids control. Here are a few comments about the Team Swift 50 held on Saturday 16th May

• George Steers again created a new age record for an 86 year old with a time of 2:29:11 on a very rough day. This time has also beaten his own age records at 85 and 84, 5mins 25 secs faster than last year and 5 secs faster than the year before. Congratulations George.
• Alan West did a storming ride to record 1:54:38 Had there been only one section he would have been 10th overall and he did win the Sid Sharman Trophy and second on standard in the vets section, he also led the Rutland CC along with George Steers and Chris Broadhurst to a B.O.S. team victory, not bad at 61 congratulations to you too.
• Newcomers to our group have also made their mark David Robinson Lindsey Roads CC did a 1:55:03 and John Allen Barnsley RC did 2:8:25. Our new lady member Alex Deck will be receiving the Sue Denham Trophy, (which has been in our loft for the past few years) at the end of the year by doing a 2:13:23 in her first ever 50.
