Sunny with a moderate breeze (14mph) - Race Time Temp 9°C

For the sake of full disclosure there is a rogue shower at 18.00hrs on an otherwise nice day but with 36 hours to go who knows what will happen.

OK. Moving on to the time-trial itself here are the essentials;

1. We meet up at the Neath Canal Car Park in Resolven for signing on from about 18.00hrs and closing at 18.30hrs for a prompt 18.45hrs race start.

2. You have to be a member of the PTW or a second-claim member of the PTW. There is no 'single race' fee - you have to join the club as a first-claim or second-claim member and for 2023 this is now £35.00 (£25.00 + £10.00 supplement).

Course Description

START on the Vale of Neath Supplier Estate service road opposite Lamp Post No. 18. Proceed eastwards along the service road to the Resolven Roundabout (0.458 miles). (Safety Notice:- Do not cross the centre line of the road on the right hand bend). Take the 1st exit left along A465 dual carriageway westbound to the 1st exit left (4.862 miles). Continue up the loop to the small Tonna Roundabout where take the 1st exit to the large Aberdulais Interchange. Take the 4th exit (5.505 miles) to proceed down the slip road to re-join A465 dual carriageway. Proceed eastbound to the Resolven Roundabout where take 1st exit left to FINISH at the access road to the Canal Car Park on the cross-valley link road (10.006 miles).

Alfie's MOTM - Kyle Blackmore. Boom!

Big thanks to Dai and Will for getting things started as I was running late last night (could we un-invent 'Teams Meetings' please?) and for then doing their usual excellent work. Thanks also to Julian Brock for marshalling the turn.

You might notice a lack of race reports this season. Normally, Fridays are pretty relaxed for me but will become a normal work day very soon so I just won't have the time. Sorry guys!

I've created 'Martin Edwards 2', because AFACIS 'Martin Edwards 1' hasn't ridden a Club TT since 2010, and I'm not too certain about those.

It would be nice if I could tie each person to their CTT number, for example 'Martin Edwards 2' is https://www.cyclingtimetrials.org.uk/rider-results/46138. But I guess not everyone will have one.

I had thought, since the Club TTs are now being listed on CTT, that the results might be listed there as well, but no.

Electric bikes are great. They give ordinary people the chance to know what it feels like to be me.

Yes Bill, it is the same Martin Edwards who is on the comeback trail.
