13 September 2020 OMA 10 TT - Isle of Grain
Photos from Alan Rowe
After a 2 hour journey I arrived at the course, erected signs, and made
my way to the meeting point. Because of the traffic chaos on the A2 I was
not expecting to see anyone, but there were six riders. We had an excellent
field of Eight riders finally. They were sent on there way by Val @ 15:15
(approx.)
First away was Bill Wright riding his first time trial for many years,
then one of our new members Elaine Owen, both of whom did good rides
considering their experience. The weather was fine this time with only a
slight breeze (I think, but then I wasn’t riding!).
Dave Rudd & Roger Hargreaves turned out, Terry Deeley had another go as
well as Steve Carter-Smith. Chris Gordon–Coker completed the field, we had
one private time trial, Darrell Lock of Southborough & district.

10 August 2020 Club 10 mile TT - Isle of Grain
Our first Time Trial of this year was held on Saturday 15 August on
Q10/24 the Isle of Grain course. Because the weather was not looking good,
as the organiser, I turned up early to put up the signs and check the course
for any hazards.
The first to arrive was Peter Jenn, Terry Deeley & then Steve Carter
-Smith. Kav, Brian Saxton, Tony & Val, and a then Lennie & Pat Brown. There
were three non-appearances with valid reasons.
Before the start we had a couple of Heavy downpours which left large
areas of standing water across the road. Steve was the first man off
followed by Terry & Peter. Due to the present environment there was no
pusher off - riders had to start with one foot on the ground.
Thank you for all the members who turned out to make it happen on such an
awful day! Congratulations to the riders for riding in such conditions and
recording excellent times , WELL DONE !!
