Many thanks to everyone who helped with our 10 mile TT at Cuckney yesterday. The event went smoothly despite a minor accident involving one rider and everyone involved was a credit to Rotherham Wheelers. Some fast times were recorded, but highlight of the day was 14 year old Lydia Turan knocking 32 seconds off the girl’s junior course record, so well done to her!
The injured rider was taken to hospital in Sutton in Ashfield but was not expected to be detained.
Once again, thank you one and all.
