TT10 18th August
I was somewhat aghast when roadworks appeared in Hibaldstow with traffic lights in both directions. Imagine my dismay when I got to Scawby Brook and found more roadworks and lights over the start and finish line. The latter was resolved by moving further down the road so that the lights did not impinge on the …

Much improved weather for TT8 21st July
After the horrendous weather that led to the cancellation of TT7, the sun came back out to play. Not a frozen marshal in sight and some cracking times. The only down side was that the sunshine and heat seemed to have spawned an outbreak of agricultural machinery and other traffic on the roads which led …

TT6 Muck and Bullets
Not the best TT for me as organiser this week. Having diligently cycled the route pre-event and found it clear, a tractor sneaked out after I had left for the event and deposited mountains of muck all along the road out of Hibaldstow. Ok, a bit of hyperbole, but thanks to Simon and Isaac for …

TT5 Warm Evening and Long Cool Downs!
What can I say but another fabulous evening? Catherine Butterill bravely led the field out aided by a helpful arrow to show her the right direction, kindly supplied by starter Fiona. Catherine’s approach to the event was unorthodox with a brief, even cursory, warm up and an extended cool down. In fact we thought she …

TT4 Sunshine After The Rain
The weather gods smiled upon the Lincsquad TTs again this week. A day that started very wet found some lovely sunshine for the evening and there was very little water left on the course by the off. The dreaded headwind home had returned but was more benign this week. Sheehan Quirke, flying home in 21:27, …

Lovely, bright and brutal for the 2nd TT
It was déjà vu for TT2: lovely and bright but with a cold wind blowing. Again, there was a tough headwind on the return leg, the description in vogue being “BRUTAL”. Times were very similar to last week but Mark Turner, Darren Scutt and Roo Butterill all managed to shave time off TT1 with the …

First Time Trial of 2021 gets off the line
Amazingly, the sun shone throughout the first TT of the season. It was lovely to greet familiar and new faces and see the relaxed camaraderie (appropriately socially distanced of course). The sun was a bit misleading and marshals and riders alike were chilled by the end of the event. Except for hardy Yorkshireman, Robert Marley. …
