THE 125^th NATIONAL CLARION EASTER MEET AT WARWICK – APRIL 10^TH TO 12^TH

Many of you have been asking for more details about this year’s Easter Meet in Warwick, well here it is for you:

As our headline event we have the CLARION COTSWOLD CHALLENGE RIDE – a 125km beautiful ride through the lanes from Warwick into the Cotswolds to commemorate our 125^th Easter Meet.

Held on Easter Sunday, all riders will receive the 125^TH Easter Meet ribbon and finishers will receive a National Clarion commemorative medal.

And if you only want to take one bike to the Easter Meet, then Saturday’s Kenneth Humphries Memorial 10 mile TT will be great for you, as it will be a road bike (non-aero) time trial over 10 miles.

Our annual Gala Dinner and Prize Presentationwill this year be held on Saturday the 11^th of April at the fine venue of Warwick school. Fine dining, great friends and a celebration of our awards winners, racing and non-racing shall be held in these wonderful surroundings. Start planning to bring a group of clubmates along.

For further details of this fine weekend please find attached document. If you have any questions please get in touch with organiser - Jessica Beyer on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Another week, another storm... This time Dennis is forecasted to be bad enough to make us postpone the weekly club runs on account of rider safety. 

Apologies again, but this always has to be our priority. 

All Friday youth sessions are now suspended until further notice and when the whole Coronavirus situation improves and the outcome becomes much clearer.
While it is still permissible to cycle away from others you may still be able to get your cycling in with some care, or you may decide keeping fit indoors works for you, either way i'm sure we'll all be looking forward to getting things back to normal.
In the meantime, stay safe
