Wolsey Road Club is a great cycling club with a wealth of knowledge and experience. Members regularly compete or take part in time trials, sportives, reliability rides, club rides in association with the local CTC club and charity and fun rides.
The club celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011, some of the founding members are still actively competing and even more are involved with the club organisation. If you want help and advice on maintenance or repair of your bike, fitting or alterations just ask.
Annual Prize Presentation
The Annual prize presentation and Lunch for Wolsey Road Club was on 5th Feb, luckily the sudden snowy weather only stopped 2 couples form attending. Unfortunately one couple was WRC president and her husband, Olive and Don Forsbrook.
Hope that you have now managed to excape
from the snow, Don and Olive?
