Andy Grice will be aiming to turn up the heat on clubmate Dave Hilton
THE RACE for Southport’s 10-mile championship is gathering pace as riders scramble for valuable points, writes Paul Mayor.
With Dave Hilton electing not to ride every event gives lesser mortals a chance. In Dave’s absence, Rob Hurst has been the man to beat but he will be not compete this Thursday as he is riding in the Alps with Andy Cargill and Terry Wignall.
Andy Grice may be able to take advantage of the situation and he is certainly in good form having recorded a personal best time of 23 minutes and 2 seconds in the Preston Wheelers event at Garstang on Tuesday evening.
Other riders continue to come up with some excellent times with Colin Baldwin recording 24-33 in the Prescott Eagle 10, Bill Lloyd 2-10-29 in the Ferryhill Wheelers 50 and B Sedgewick 1-1-26 in the Heanor Clarion 25.
The club will be holding its Track Night at the Manchester Velodrome on Nov 26. IInterested parties should contact Colin Baldwin.
Another event not to miss is the club’s open 25 for which Dave Hilton is taking entries.
Meanwhile, Southport’s Bill Bradley memorial ride takes place on July 27 , starting at the Preston Arena.
For those who do not wish to take the longer route from Southport, the ride goes through the Trough of Bowland and some of the North of Englands most beautiful countryside.
