Hi everyone,
 
Things are turning Autumnal and with the changing seasons comes another change in the cycling world. Hill climb season is upon us. The Frome and District Wheelers are holding their club event this Sunday up the Westbury White horse and I will be leadng a ride out there to take part/spectate (your choice).
 
Te event is enter on the line and costs £2 we'll need to be out there by 0930 so I propose to leave the Guildhall at 0830 to give us time to get there and sign on. Last year it was a great day and the F&DW folk are friendly. It'll be a great warm up for the club open on the 4th October and the club championship on the 18th October and a good ride as well.
 
On the subject of hill climbs,we still need 4 more marshalls for the open event to go ahead and keep the course safe. It really is vital that we have all the marshalls. If you can help for an hour or so on the 4th that would be great.
  
If you aren't marshalling then why not ride, James Ford is so far the only representative for the club. Tav, Tony, Mark B, Darren & Jim you could all be in with a shout at being fastest Walcoter on the day and up there with the best. It is really important to me that we are well represented at our own event.
  
Please get your entries in to me or ring to let me know they are on their way (07886 267 561). Finally, if you really don't want to ride then cheer, heckle and clap the riders. Spectating is a big part of hill climbs and it helps make the day. This Youtube clip shows what it can be like...

Something to aim for.
