PTW

AKA The unofficial Vet's World Championship!

Just a reminder that this event is just three weeks away now so I'm looking for some help.

Actually, we have two events this year as the event also incorporates the GHS District Championship (DCI Gene Hunt would know it as the 'schoolboys 10').

The GHS is just £2 to enter and it would be great to see a few PTW jerseys on the start line.

Just a note on the GHS...

You must use the special GHS National Championship form including the associated parental consent section.

Eligible to Compete

Riders who have attained 12 years of age on the day of the District Championship but are under 17 years of age on the 31st August in the year of the competion.

All riders must ride in the name of their school or affiliated club.

Entrants can only ride in the District where their club is affiliated or where their school is located.

Alf
If its a 2.00 pm start, I'll push off for you.

Hi matey

Should be ok to do whatever.

Can you confirm the date please.

Thanks Martin. Saturday, May 1st.

Even with the GHS it looks like a very short event

Looks like I'm going to be working so unable to help on the day. Sorry.

No problem as Mr. Bowen is pushing-off.

Only 68 entries plus 9 GHS.

bring back Mike and Hayley!!!!

Reason for edit: Dan Colman is actually Category B15

Chips - I've deleted the start sheet from the homepage as unfortunately you only went down as far as rider No.40 causing me a few querying phonecalls.

OK boys and girls I'm looking for a bit of help please.

Mandy needs a bit of help with the catering.

Apart from that it's marshals that are required and as many as we can muster.

Hi Alf

Annie has offered to help Mand with the refreshments

Hi Alfie,I can marshall for you if reqd?
What time and where?

Thanks Annie, much appreciated.

Thanks fixie6 - you'll need a marshal's jacket so come to the HQ. However, if you're cycling and would prefer not to come all the way up to the TRW club then just let me know and I'll get a jacket sent down to Aberdulais.

Catering - Annie and Mandy

Pushing Off - Selwyn 'Bambi' Bowen (adopts Leslie Phillips voice: well hel-lo)

Resolven Rbt -

Tonna Rbt - Peter 'Crash Test Dummy' Jones

Aberdulais Rbt - Jeff Griffiths & fixie6

Resolven Rbt (return) -

Resolven 'T' - Martin 'Diplomat' Edwards

Results Board - Alf

Put me down for Marshalling at Tonna Roundabout,better than watching the Swans!!!!!!!!

OK Peter and thanks.

bump

Help is still required please

Hi alfie, if poss could you get a jacket sent down to me please.
I will be cycling up.
What time do you want me there?

First rider is off at 14.01hrs so getting for about the same time is fine. If the first rider is there before 14.10hrs it's probably Bradley Wiggins...

I'm having the night off tonight so the result can wait until tomorrow but I'd just like to thank everyone who helped out with today's event.

Thank You.

EDIT - Don't let me hear of anyone ripping into Gary for not starting! It was my fault for entering him

Gary did his usual bang-up job of helping his club out. Well done Gary.

Dai Triggs Not just a respectible Vets Plus but also another PERSONAL BEST...... Well done Mr Triggs........ by my reckoning that'ts probably the club handicap 10 winner although Vernon may have other things to say on the handicap allowances....... and I'm going down to the hospital with chocolate cake right now to press my claim LOL..

Les, you've lost tonnes of weight since your comeback ... Resist !!! don't eat the choc cake, give it to Vernon instead !
And please give him my best while you're there !
