Sussex Nomads Hill Climb
GH/90
Sunday 30 October 2016
The final event of the season. This one proved what we all know anyway. Hill climbing is a young man's sport. There was only one 'vet' in the top 14 places and he is a mere 43 years old.

Robin Dickie of the University of Manchester CC was the clear winner, with the promoting club gaining honours via Jason Blenkarn's second place.

Tamar Vanderhaas of Lewes Wanderers excelled. As well as taking the ladies prize she also broke the ladies' event and course record. Preston Park Youth CC dominated the junior rankings.

Sunday 23 October 2016
Colin Ward of Essex Roads CC repeats his win of last season, although this was not spotted until the evening. Second placed Pete Tadros (In Gear Quickvit Trainsharp RT) had initially been awarded the win by virtue of a time error (one minute in his favour).

Pete did however have the consolation of seeing his son Theo produce a devastating ride in the junior competition. His time of 58:20 would have placed him fourteenth in the seniors.

Ruth Summerford of Velopace won the womens event. In Gear were the team winners

Velopace Hill Climb
GH/96
Saturday 15 October 2016
A new event on a new course. Details of the event are here.

Report from Kim Washington:
The inaugural Velopace Butts Lane Hill Climb turned out to be a superb event. The weather remained dry for the duration of the race which carried all the hallmarks of a classic event in the making. Cheered on by the spectators and encouraged by our MC at the half way point, the riders tackled the climb with great form and determination. It’s safe to say that this event is now firmly part of the annual hill climb racing calendar.

With a highly competitive race between the fastest hill climbers, the course record has been established by 1st placed Rowan Brackston of Imperial College Cycling Club with a storming time of 3m38s. Close behind was 2nd placed hill climbing legend Bill Bell with a 3m42s ride and local climbing hero Peter Tadros with 3m49s to take 3rd place. Peter’s 14 year-old son Theo took 8th overall and fastest Juvenile with 4m23s.

Fastest lady Joscelin Lowden was 12th overall with a stunning 4m35s climb. Congratulations also to Nick Martin, fastest junior with 4m7s which put him 7th overall.
The fastest team award goes to local club Eastbourne Rovers, establishing Matt Woods, David Clark and Bob Humphrey as their Butts Lane champions. Well done to all riders and we look forward to seeing you again next year.

SUSSEX CA CHAMPIONSHIP HILL CLIMB
GH/92
Saturday 1 October 2016
There were truly appalling conditions for the riders in this event. The weather, both before and during the event, varied between hard rain and absolute torrential cloudbursts. Many of the riders were huddled in a bus shelter near the start line in a vain attempt to dodge the worst of it. The course itself became a raging torrent with flash flooding and debris. Warming up was an interesting concept with riders becoming soaked and chilled even before they had started.

​Given the circumstances there were some impressive performances. Richard Cartland improved his time and his third place of last season to claim the overall win. Gareth Thyer (BGrighton Mitre CC) also improved his time and won the SCA Championship.

Once again Nick Martin (East Grinstead CC) and Tamar Vanderhaas (Lewes Wanderers CC) won their respective categories. John McGrath claimed the vets title and led his club Worthing Excelsior to the team award.

Epsom CC (shortened to 22.5)
emergency course
Sunday 25 September 2016
The best laid plans and all that..... A last minute course change to avoid the Tough Mudder traffic further up the course meant a shortened  22.5 mile 3 loop course turning early at Faygate. Well done to everybody for managing the situation on the day.

James Boyman of Farnham RC won with a superb speed over well over 30 mph. He finished ahead of Par Wright (Paceline RT) and Simon McNamara (South Downs Bikes).

Mel Wasley was the fastest female competitor, and the promoting club Epsom CC took the team prize. The Norwood Paragon pairing of James Stuart and Chris Holmes won a well contested 2 Up TTT event.

Not strictly speaking a Sussex event - although one of our affiliated clubs ...a3crg were hugely involved in helping to put on this very popular promotion which had a full entry of 150 riders.

Good conditions and a fine course meant that there were many who went home very happy with their times on the day. The first five riders did 18:xx and the next sixteen all went inside the 20 minute mark.

Rob Sharland of Paceline RT was the overall winner, and Matthew Downie of Eden Veranda Racing won the Road Bikes event. Kevin Tye was the fastest vet on standard. Paceline RT took the team prize in the main event whilst the promoting club Utag did the same in the road bike category.

SCCU 10

Some remarkably fast times today given the nature of the emergency course necessitated due to roadworks. One and a half laps of the Ellens CGreen circuit with narrow country lanes, sharp corners, severe potholes and impatient car drivers.

​Pat Wright of Paceline RT is quickest, with Katie Crowe of Dulwich Paragon CC taking the ladies prize.

G25/54
Sunday 3 April 2016
The course was made extremely tricky by a damp surface combined with a liberal dousing of diesel. This didn't deter Elliott Porter (Neon Velo) who, in his first time trial for a year, averaged 405 watts to record a remarkable 51:01 and finish well ahead of the field.

Liam Maybank (Twickenham CC) was a minute and a half further back, and Simon McNamara (South Downs Bikes) was third with 53:00.

In grim conditions with the winds gusting to speeds approaching 50 mph times on the day were exceedingly slow. None of this deterred Pete Tadros (In-Gear Trainsharp RT) as he cruised to a 9th win in this event (and his 8th in a row).

Steve Kane (having transferred back to Brighton Excelsior CC this season) wins the road bike category.

Katerina Avramides of the host club was the fastest lady, and Bigfoot CC took the team prize.

East Surrey Road Club Hard Riders 27.25 Miles
GS/491
Sunday 13 March 2016
The course length was the same as last year (and not 29.9 miles) due to lengthy ongoing bridge repairs still not having been completed.

John Dewey was a non-starter but let that take nothing away from a sub-hour time of 59:42 by a very in-form Rob Sharland. A truly awesome performance that impressed all. His Paceline RT teammate Pat Wright was only just outside the hour mark, with Liam Maybank finishing in third place

Mel Wasey (SSLL Racing Team) took the ladies prize with 1:10:19, some 26 seconds ahead of Alice (Starley Racing)

GS/194
(short)
Sunday 6 March 2016
Due to roadworks in Handcross riders were spared the usual gruelling start up the hill from Staplefield. The course was shortened by situating the start point on the A23 slip road (the usual Crawley Wheelers 41 start point). However they were not spared the arctic conditions with temperatures at around 0 to 2 degrees.

Chris McNamara of Nuun-Sigma Sport London RT headed the field with a fine 49:34. He was ahead of Liam Maybank (Twickenham CC) with 51:04 and twin brother Simon McNamara (South Downs Bikes) at 51:05.

South Downs Bikes (Simon, Kevin Plummer and Richard Cartland) won the team prize thanks in part to a Crawley Wheelers rider going off course. Helen Webb of Sussex Nomads took the ladies prize with 1:08:49. Helen benefited in similar fashion as her only rival also went off course.

Geoff Smith of Eastbourne Rovers CC won the vets on standard.

John Dewey of newly-formed Team Bottrill wins this tough event on a chill windy day. His time of 22:18 was 15 seconds short of the record for this course which is to host this season's national 10 championships. Rob Sharland of Paceline RT and Pete Tadros of In-Gear Quickvit Trainsharp RT filled out the podium.

The host club gained their reward as Simone Bailey was the fastest lady (26:43).

Matthew Buckley of Andover Wheelers won the Road Bikes Event, with Seb Ader being the fastest Sussex based rider and Andy Langdown (newly transferred to Blazing Saddles) close behind him.

Bad luck so early in the season. Note from promoter:

EVENT CANCELLED 

As mentioned above we have had to cancel the event. The road closures down through Walliswood left us a few alternate routes but one option had two-way traffic lights and the only alternate route had traffic lights on due to be removed the day before which were a risk. The CTT decided no safe alternate route could be found and recommended cancellation. 

Apologies to all competitors.

Pat Wright heads Pete Tadros and Chris McNamara in cold savage windy conditions with gusts up to 50 mph.
Much of the pre-race speculation was about the battle between old adversaries Pete and Chris, but it was the 31 year old Paceline RT rider who took the honours. He rode in only 6 time trials last season and used a road bike in all of them.
​Pete Morris was the fastest on a road bike today, and his ASL360 team took the team prize.
