Wednesday Time Trials.

edited April 2008 in Road Racing
we really need 5 volunteers who will between them look after 1 months TT each..i.e. time/and generally guarantee to be there each week of their period.
If not I can't see it happening this year.

Please let me know quickly if you wish to help

  • Hi Geoff,
    I'll help out, but can only do every other week with my shift pattern. I don't mind doing a good chunk of them if some others take up the slack.

    Angus
  • I would be happy to help out for a few evenings. You can call me on: 01763 246719 (H) 07710 973992 (M).....John Meadows
  • No interest form anyone else? Surely this is something worth keeping up. It's the best and least daunting introduction to racing there is. I will do every other week if some sort of rota can be kept up by others when I can't come. I'ld do them all, but my shift pattern doesn't allow it. Come on guys there's enough of you who've ridden it.
  • there is a glitch with registering as it wasn't done within the required time guys...........There cannot be any in May..I am trying to get the necessary clearances for june, but don't hold your breath

    John and Angus...many thanks...I also Knoe Ian and Jayne Clarke were offering.....Bob swain as well....Perhaps you could all e.mail eachother separately and see whether you can come up with a roster....I will persevere with clearance.
  • folks, I'm ready to time-keep when we have clearance from CTT
    have we tried phoning the local CTT chap, is it David Ledgerton?
    as it's only a local club 10 it shouldn't have any obstacles
    I am happy to time-keep until mid June, all we need is a 2nd time-keeper, either myself or Andy Bartlett can train them
    I understand that the police just need to be told and that the 6 weeks notice is a CTT recommendation rather than law
  • Hi Ian,
    I stand by what I've said and can do alternate weeks throughout if needed. My shifts will allow for May 14th, 28th, june 11th (my birhtday!) onward if you see what I mean? On holiday 14-28th June though. If you want to do some sort of rota with the others Geoff mentioned then I'll stick to it.
  • People,
    My understanding from Martin at Bedford Road and from reading the CTT website is that we should have submitted the appropriate forms for the event to CTT at least 42 days before the start and that we should have informed all three police forces which this event covers at least 28 days before the start.
    The bottom line is someone needs to sort this paperwork out, which is available on the CTT website. 42 days puts us well into July with a shed load of phoning and paperwork to be done.
    I think this is a worthwhile event for the club but is anyone willing to take on the work?
    Richard
  • The police just need confirmatory letters as they understand glitches happen.
    I have a call out to David Ledgerton and am hoping for a positive response.
    Keep talking to eachother and come up with a workable roster guys
  • let's keep things moving, I've organised many club and open events over the years and I doubt that CTT will stop us running them as soon as we get the forms to the police. The CTT will want to help us and all they want is the levies and to know there's a local club running club 10s.
    Richard, yes - I am willing...I will timekeep the first 4-6 events, maybe more, Angus said he would also...(and we are only 2nd claim members) just think what help we can get from others who are 1st claim Ashwell members.
    my own club is turning riders away because of day light, once they get to 40 riders.
    It is a littlew worrying, if we cannot organise a club 10, what chance we have for other stuff...but maybe the club just wants to get the GoRide stuff moving...I've offered to help in that too!!

    I have some movement...talked to all police and CTT...Should have clearance for June 11th....can you organise yourselves to run it from then ??
  • Cambridge police appear to be stricter than the Beds and Herts who have been just great. I should have all the paperwork sorted tomorrow so crossed fingers guys.
  • Ian...I've put you down as the person running the TT's with in brackets nominated appointee when you can't make it. Someones name has to be there...sorry. I have named myself as the main contact so you won't be pestered by paperwork.
  • O.K. Guys.............looks like Wed. 11th is on for starting TT's.....watch this thread for any alteration to this.
  • Is the time trial on tonight?
