For those of you who need more than just one time trial fix per week, the Rhayader Hilly series may interest you.

Every other Thursday, these events run on sporting courses at various distances around the Rhayader area and they are run by Clive Powell from his shop in the town where you can stay for the results afterwards and tuck into homemade food and selection of drinks from his licensed cafe.

Two notes from the club regarding the time trial series:

1) Any non members of the club are allowed to ride up to three designated ‘Come and Try It’ time trials before becoming a member of Ystwyth CC. These events are ONLY the 10 mile TT’s which start at Cambrian Printers (the Llety course). All other events are open to club members, or members of another affiliated club only.

Once your three events are up, a club official will need payment at the start of your fourth ride if you wish to race.

2) The marshal rota will be handed out at next week’s time trial. All club members who regularly attend the series will be asked to put their names down for two events during the year to assist with timing or marshalling. With such a big turnout at the events, we now require a minimum of four, preferably five officials at events. Three at the start line for pushing off / timing / recording the finishers, one at Capel Bangor turn and one at the 5 mile point.

Basically if you are on rota for a specific event and can’t make it, please ensure that you have made arrangements for another club member to take your place and inform Kim Jones. Events with less than three helpers will be under threat of cancellation on the night.

Many thanks

The committee
