great ride, thanks for leading Tim

Hi guys, my first ever chain gang, and I really enjoyed it. Managed to stay involved for the first lap but the bump out of Steeple up to the monument max'd me out on the second lap. All felt pretty chaotic and not sure if I was making any errors or …

Sorry martin, i'm going to bail out of tonight's chain gang, weather looks too cold and wet. Hope you have fun, will be out next week if it's running.
-
Yes please, probably won't make a full lap, but gives me something to aim for this summer.

New member just signed up, very simple thank you. Right, off to find out where I get a CCA jersey from?!?

Hi David, I really enjoyed my first club ride, really nice bunch, all very friendly. Will definitely be out again, may well leave the Panniers at home though! Thanks Ian

Hi Martin, I watched your race, gave you a shout out on the third corner as often as poss. Your race was so fast, totally full on from the gun, well done. I was going to introduce myself after the race but couldn't find you. oh well hoping to make a…

Hi Chris, (for what it's worth). the novice is a very mixed bag of abilities and experience. fair few older guys like me, and lot's of people just wanting to give it a go. I'm totally sold on the experience as I find the prospect of riding even Cat…

Hi Martin, 4th Cat probably too much for me at the moment. next year hopefully. The whole concept of working together with other people seems unthinkable at the moment, the racing is just so manic. I guess the reality is that I am working with other…

Hi Guys, Just a quick update, after enjoying the Novice Letchworth GP so much I signed up for Berko and WGC (Novice). Arrived in the drizzle which was quite disappointing as having Recce'd the course the week before I knew a couple of the corners we…

Ok, so after looking on my Strava, I also got the lap times wrong........not a great report was it! I lapped in 2:00, current fastest lap is 1:41. https://www.strava.com/activities/627414698/segments/15318050233 hope this helps.

Doh........typing error.....that first right hander is a left hander!!! sorry

Hi All, so I went over Saturday morning. the course is excellent. it starts with a 300 metre uphill drag (guessing 2-3%) which will be a breeze the first few times up but will take it's toll after a while. Solid right hand bend drops downhill and th…

Hi, I've entered this. Going over tomorrow to check out the course, nice little 75 mile round trip for me! Loved the Letchworth GP so much I've entered this and WGC the week after. Strictly Novice but with great ambitions. Although not a CCA member…

Hi Martin, I'm not actually a member of CCA, I've just joined this forum to ask advice. I've entered the Berkhampstead and WGC races though, so I will say hello to any CCA guys I see. I've considered joining CCA, but like so many people family and …

Hi, following your advice above, I took the plunge....and loved every minute of it. I entered the Novice race with huge amounts of trepidation, but it was all a brilliant laugh. Made the mistake of being very shy and polite at the start and ended u…

OK, entry done. Fingers crossed for no rain.

Hi GWD, that's brilliant thank you. I watched some of the racing last year and it seemed very mixed. ideal for dipping my toe back in the water I guess. What's the worst that could happen!
-
Hi, just after some advice. A friend and I are interested in giving the Novices race a go at the Letchworth Grand Prix, but are unsure of the standard that we'll be amongst. Obviously everyone will be non Cat riders, but is it likely to be very comp…
