Local cyclists look ahead to 2017
Hadleigh Cycling Club’s AGM on 5th December (18.30 – 10.30) at The George in Hadleigh will be an opportunity to review the highlights of 2016 and to plan for next year. The Club is keen that members (and those who are thinking of joining) share their ideas for the year ahead and quiz the committee. Adam Chamberlin, Chair of the Club, said, “It’s been a full on year. We’ve had cyclists participating in a whole range of disciplines on and off the road and we had 250 for the second Gayford Flyer Sportive. “I’m particular pleased with how the Junior section is developing. We had a big turnout at October’s Go Ride Day and it was great to see some new faces. The input of the coaching team and the support of British Cycling is really appreciated.” The Committee has begun to explore ideas for 2017. These include encouraging new and riders to take up group cycling with shorter, slower rides from March. The Club will continue to support women to gain confidence in cycling through its Thursday evening rides and 'Get Back On Your Bike' courses. Three Hadleigh CC riders took part in the Mistley cyclo-cross event. In the competitive youth event Molly Cutmore came home in 43rd place but, more importantly, was 3rd place female youth. In the young veterans’ event (40 - 49 years old) Perri Higgs had a tough race but battled valiantly to come home in 74th place. Nick Webber performed creditably in the 50+ category.
